net: convert TCP/DCCP ehash rwlocks to spinlocks
Now TCP & DCCP use RCU lookups, we can convert ehash rwlocks to spinlocks. /proc/net/tcp and other seq_file 'readers' can safely be converted to 'writers'. This should speedup writers, since spin_lock()/spin_unlock() only use one atomic operation instead of two for write_lock()/write_unlock() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
