The code currently uses list_for_each_entry_rcu() while holding an SRCU
lock, triggering false positive warnings with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y
enabled:
drivers/nvme/host/multipath.c:168 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!
drivers/nvme/host/multipath.c:227 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!
drivers/nvme/host/multipath.c:260 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!
While the list is properly protected by SRCU lock, the code uses the
wrong list traversal primitive. Replace list_for_each_entry_rcu() with
list_for_each_entry_srcu() to correctly indicate SRCU-based protection
and eliminate the false warning.

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 reStructuredText 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.
