[ Upstream commit b0ac6d3b56a2384db151696cfda2836a8a961b6d ]
When removing a nexthop, commit
90f33bffa3 ("nexthops: don't modify published nexthop groups") added a
call to synchronize_rcu() (later changed to _net()) to make sure
everyone sees the new nexthop-group before the rtnl-lock is released.
When one wants to delete a large number of groups and nexthops, it is
fastest to first flush the groups (ip nexthop flush groups) and then
flush the nexthops themselves (ip -6 nexthop flush). As that way the
groups don't need to be rebalanced.
However, `ip -6 nexthop flush` will still take a long time if there is
a very large number of nexthops because of the call to
synchronize_net(). Now, if there are no more groups, there is no point
in calling synchronize_net(). So, let's skip that entirely by checking
if nh->grp_list is empty.
This gives us a nice speedup:

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.
