+ rtnl_lock() is being replaced with rtnl_net_lock() that
+ acquires the global RTNL and a small per-netns RTNL mutex.
+
+ During the conversion, rtnl_net_lock() just adds an extra
+ mutex in every RTNL scope and slows down the operations.
+
+ Once the conversion completes, rtnl_lock() will be removed
+ and rtnetlink will gain per-netns scalability.
