PATCH 2/4 bonding: use RCU protection for alb xmit path

The commit 278b20837511776dc9d5f6ee1c7fabd5479838bb (bonding: initial RCU conversion) has convert the roundrobin, active-backup, broadcast and xor xmit path to rcu protection, the performance will be better for these mode, so this time, convert xmit path for alb mode.

This suggests that rcu_read_lock() is always held here, however it's not the case, as far as I can tell:

bond_release()/bond_uninit() ->
__bond_release_one() ->
bond_alb_deinit_slave() ->
alb_change_hw_addr_on_detach() ->
bond_slave_has_mac()

There is nobody that takes rcu_read_lock() there. And, for example, when doing:

echo -$slave > /sys/class/net/$bond_int/bonding/slaves

nobody is holding it. And, btw, in bond_for_each_slave_rcu(), which is actually a wrapper for netdev_for_each_lower_private_rcu(), which calls netdev_lower_get_next_private_rcu(), which has:

4543 void *netdev_lower_get_next_private_rcu(struct net_device *dev,
4544 struct list_head **iter)
4545 {
4546 struct netdev_adjacent *lower;
4547 4548 WARN_ON_ONCE(!rcu_read_lock_held());

so you should have seen that warning when trying to remove a slave in alb mode.
