In the case of the appldata driver, an RCU read-side critical section is used to ensure the integrity of the list of network interfaces, because the driver iterates through all net devices in the netns to aggregate statistics. We still need some protection against an interface registering or deregistering, and the writer-side lock, the netns's mutex, is fine for that, because it offers sleepable context. The ops->callback function is called from under appldata_ops_mutex protection, so this is proof that the context is sleepable and holding a mutex is therefore fine.
