Subject: [PATCH] 8021q: delete cleared egress QoS mappings
vlan_dev_set_egress_priority() currently keeps cleared egress
priority mappings in the hash as tombstones. Repeated set/clear cycles
with distinct skb priorities therefore accumulate mapping nodes until
device teardown and leak memory.
Delete mappings when vlan_prio is cleared instead of keeping tombstones.
Now that the egress mapping lists are RCU protected, the node can be
unlinked safely and freed after a grace period.

[ Upstream commit fc69decc811b155a0ed8eef17ee940f28c4f6dbc ]
The TX fast path and reporting paths walk egress QoS mappings without
RTNL. Convert the mapping lists to RCU-protected pointers, use RCU
reader annotations in readers, and defer freeing mapping nodes with an
embedded rcu_head.
This prepares the egress QoS mapping code for safe removal of mapping
nodes in a follow-up change while preserving the current behavior.
