	Paul McKenney requested on 15 Aug 2023 some changes
for 1st version:

https://archive.linuxvirtualserver.org/html/lvs-devel/2023-08/msg00044.html

	And they are now present in v2+:

https://archive.linuxvirtualserver.org/html/lvs-devel/2023-08/msg00057.html

	So, the RCU change is expected to be ack-ed after
the other patches are accepted. I'm also expecting review and
ack from Simon, so that we can finally include the patchset
to -next...

Regards
