Subject: net: netfilter: Serialize xt_write_recseq sections on RT
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
Date: Sun, 28 Oct 2012 11:18:08 +0100

The netfilter code relies only on the implicit semantics of
local_bh_disable() for serializing wt_write_recseq sections. RT breaks
that and needs explicit serialization here.
