UBUNTU: SAUCE: khubd -- switch USB product/manufacturer/serial handling to RCU
BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/510937 With the introduction of wireless USB hubs the product, manufacturer, and serial number are now mutable. This necessitates new locking in the consumers of these values including the sysfs read routines in order to prevent use-after-free acces to these values. These extra locks create significant lock contention leading to increased boot times (0.3s for an example Atom based system). Move update of these values to RCU based locking.
