		Note that, rcu_assign_pointer() and rcu_dereference() relate to
		SRCU just as they do to other forms of RCU.

		15. The whole point of call_rcu(), synchronize_rcu(), and friends
		is to wait until all pre-existing readers have finished before
		carrying out some otherwise-destructive operation. It is
		therefore critically important to -first- remove any path
		that readers can follow that could be affected by the
		destructive operation, and -only- -then- invoke call_rcu(),
		synchronize_rcu(), or friends.

		Because these primitives only wait for pre-existing readers,
		it is the caller's responsibility to guarantee safety to
		any subsequent readers.

		Options for the ipv6 module are supplied as parameters at load time.

		Module options may be given as command line arguments to the insmod
		or modprobe command, but are usually specified in either the
		/etc/modules.conf or /etc/modprobe.conf configuration file, or in a
		distro-specific configuration file.

		The available ipv6 module parameters are listed below. If a parameter
		is not specified the default value is used.

		The parameters are as follows:

		disable

		Specifies whether to load the IPv6 module, but disable all
		its functionality. This might be used when another module
		has a dependency on the IPv6 module being loaded, but no
		IPv6 addresses or operations are desired.

		The possible values and their effects are:

		0
		IPv6 is enabled.

		This is the default value.

		1
		IPv6 is disabled.

		No IPv6 addresses will be added to interfaces, and
		it will not be possible to open an IPv6 socket.

		A reboot is required to enable IPv6.
