race in __fib6_drop_pcpu_from() [1]\n\nIf compiler reads more than once (*ppcpu_rt),\nsecond read could read NULL, if another cpu clears\nthe value in rt6_get_pcpu_route().\n\nAdd a READ_ONCE() to prevent this race.\n\nAlso add rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() because\nwe rely on RCU protection while dereferencing pcpu_rt.\n\n[1]\n\nOops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical
