Extend tcf_chain with new filter_chain_lock mutex. Always lock the chain when accessing filter_chain list, instead of relying on rtnl lock. Dereference filter_chain with tcf_chain_dereference() lockdep macro to verify that all users of chain_list have the lock taken. Rearrange tp insert/remove code in tc_new_tfilter/tc_del_tfilter to execute all necessary code while holding chain lock in order to prevent invalidation of chain_info structure by potential concurrent change. This also serializes calls to tcf_chain0_head_change(), which allows head change callbacks to rely on filter_chain_lock for synchronization instead of rtnl mutex. Signed-off-by:
