net: sched: protect block offload-related fields with rw_semaphore
In order to remove dependency on rtnl lock, extend tcf_block with 'cb_lock' rwsem and use it to protect flow_block->cb_list and related counters from concurrent modification. The lock is taken in read mode for read-only traversal of cb_list in tc_setup_cb_call() and write mode in all other cases. This approach ensures that: - cb_list is not changed concurrently while filters is being offloaded on block. - block->nooffloaddevcnt is checked while holding the lock in read mode, but is only changed by bind/unbind code when holding the cb_lock in write mode to prevent concurrent modification.
