The peer->mtu_lock is only used to lock around writes to peer->max_data -
and nothing else; further, all such writes take place in the I/O thread and
the lock is only ever write-locked and never read-locked.
In a couple of places, the write_seqcount_begin() is wrapped in
preempt_disable/enable(), but not in all places. This can cause lockdep to
complain:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1549 at include/linux/seqlock.h:221 rxrpc_input_ack_trailer+0x305/0x430
...
RIP: 0010:rxrpc_input_ack_trailer+0x305/0x430
Fix this by just getting rid of the lock.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
