Correct.

Why are you using rcu_dereference_raw() and not rcu_dereference(). The
_raw() is a bit special, and unless you know what you are doing with RCU
here, don't use it.

As I see you using rcu_dereference_raw() all over this patch, along with
mutexes, I believe that you are not using RCU correctly here.
