To do things correctly rproc->state would need to be protected by the
rproc->mutex, which would violate RCU's rule of not blocking inside a read-side
critical section. And going back to using the rproc_list_mutex as in your
previous version would likely set off the lockdep mechanic quickly.

I don't have a solution, just noting that a potential race does exist. On the
flip side consequences are minimal.
