There was the check:

        BUG_ON(!mutex_is_locked(&net_mutex));
 
which was killed in one of next commits of this patchset:

        commit 447cd7a0d7d1e5b4486e99cce289654fec9951e3
        Author: Kirill Tkhai <ktk...@virtuozzo.com>
        Date:   Tue Feb 13 12:26:44 2018 +0300

        net: Allow pernet_operations to be executed in parallel

So, the whole patchset as an atomic change is safe; and the only thing
is the hunk removing the BUG_ON() had to go in another patch.

Anyway, thanks for testing, Xiaolong.

Kirill
