[PATCH tip/core/rcu 2/4] rculist: Fix list_entry_rcu to read ptr with rcu_dereference_raw

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Tue May 12 2015 - 18:47:09 EST


From: Patrick Marlier <patrick.marlier@xxxxxxxxx>

Change to read effectively ptr with rcu_dereference_raw and not the
__ptr variable on the stack.
