[ Upstream commit2c9f029328] Destroy work waits for the RCU grace period then it releases the objects with no mutex held. All releases objects follow this path for transactions, therefore, order is guaranteed and references to top-level objects in the hierarchy remain valid. However, netlink notifier might interfer with pending destroy work. rcu_barrier() is not correct because objects are not release via RCU callback. Flush destroy work before releasing objects from netlink notifier path.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
