llc_conf_mutex was used to protect links and link related configurations in the same link group, for example, add or delete links. However, in most cases, the protected critical area has only read semantics and with no write semantics at all, such as obtaining a usable link or an available rmb_desc. This patch do simply code refactoring, replace mutex with rw_semaphore, replace mutex_lock with down_write and replace mutex_unlock with up_write. Theoretically, this replacement is equivalent, but after this patch, we can distinguish lock granularity according to different semantics of critical areas. Signed-off-by: D.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
