Subject: [PATCH 6.12.y 2/3] ipv6: ip6_mc_input() and ip6_mr_input() cleanups
Date: Tue,  8 Sep 2026 13:25:24 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260908172525.78441-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260908172525.78441-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

[ Upstream commit 46a94e44b9ec4d8d20108a1748c410d71a8dc759 ]

Both functions are always called under RCU.

We remove the extra rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock().

We use skb_dst_dev_net_rcu() instead of skb_dst_dev_net().

We use dev_net_rcu() instead of dev_net().
