Yes, I agree it is a bit too big.

If net_prio_subsys_id is changed to be an enum, then the compiler will 
report an error:

error: lvalue required as left operand of assignment

that was the reason why I kept this change here. I think I just don't 
get what you are trying to tell me.

I will do that as soon I figured out what you are telling me.

I looked up the commit message when the synchronze_rcu() was added. It 
was not really explaining it. I really spend a few hours starring at 
this code.

thanks for the review,
daniel
