[PATCH 4/4] [RFC] ipv6: Fix for possible ipv6 seqlock deadlock
From: John Stultz
Date: Mon Oct 07 2013 - 18:52:46 EST
While enabling lockdep on seqlocks, I ran across the warning below
caused by the ipv6 stats being updated in both irq and non-irq context.
This patch changes from IP6_INC_STATS_BH to IP6_INC_STATS (suggested
by Eric Dumazet) to resolve this problem.
