Otherwise, another CPU may access the invalid pointer. For example: CPU0 CPU1 - rcu_read_lock(); - pfunc = _hook_; _hook_ = NULL; - mod unload - - pfunc(); // invalid, panic - rcu_read_unlock(); So we must call synchronize_rcu() to wait the rcu reader to finish. Also note, in nf_nat_snmp_basic_fini, synchronize_rcu() will be invoked by later nf_conntrack_helper_unregister, but I'm inclined to add a explicit synchronize_rcu after set the nf_nat_snmp_hook to NULL. Depend on such obscure assumptions is not a good idea. Last, in nfnetlink_cttimeout, we use kfree_rcu to free the time object, so in cttimeout_exit, invoking rcu_barrier() is not necessary at all, remove it too.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
