Thanks for addressing my review of v1.
The commit message looks much better to me.

However, I am unable to find the cited commit in net.

And I am still curious about the cause: are you sure it is repeated deletion?

When applied against net this does not compile
as list_del_init_rcu (as opposed to hlist_del_init_rcu) does
not seem to exist in that tree. Am I missing something?
