Merge branch 'rhashtable-fixes-next'
Herbert Xu says: ==================== rhashtable: Fix two bugs caused by multiple rehash preparation While testing some new patches over the weekend I discovered a couple of bugs in the series that had just been merged. These two patches fix them: 1) A use-after-free in the walker that can cause crashes when walking during a rehash. 2) When a second rehash starts during a single rhashtable_remove call the remove may fail when it shouldn't. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
