    openvswitch: Simplify datapath locking. · 8e4e1713
    Pravin B Shelar authored Apr 15, 2013
    
    
    Currently OVS uses combination of genl and rtnl lock to protect
    datapath state.  This was done due to networking stack locking.
    But this has complicated locking and there are few lock ordering
    issues with new tunneling protocols.
    Following patch simplifies locking by introducing new ovs mutex
    and now this lock is used to protect entire ovs state.
