Hi,

It seems latest net-next kernel crashes while unloading modules.
Please see simple script below to reproduce the crash.

===============================

#!/bin/bash

while true; do

# modules will be loaded automatically

tc qdisc add dev eth1 root handle 1: prio

tc filter add dev eth1 parent 1: u32 match u32 0 0  flowid 1


tc qdisc del dev eth1 root

rmmod cls_u32

rmmod sch_prio


done

=========================

It seems there is some refcounting or locking issue issue. I am unable
to easily post the dump but sometimes it points to crashes in various
functions in prio_class_ops  (sch_prio.c), such as prio_walk(),
prio_dump_class etc. Probably, sch_prio call back functions are
invoked when they should not be.

I bisected this down to following commit:

netlink: Re-add locking to netlink_lookup() and seq walker

If there are suggestions for me to try or you need more info, let me know.

Hmm, seems rather like the synchronize_net() removal in netlink_release()
must have uncovered a bug elsewhere.
