The mechanism is used to asynchronously call __netpoll_cleanup outside of the holding of the rtnl_lock, so as to avoid deadlock. Unfortunately, __netpoll_cleanup modifies pointers (dev->np), which means the rtnl_lock must be held while calling it. Further, it cannot be held, because rcu callbacks may be issued in softirq contexts, which cannot sleep. Fix this by converting the rcu callback to a work queue that is guaranteed to get scheduled in process context, so that we can hold the rtnl properly while calling __netpoll_cleanup Tested successfully by myself.
