From: Simon Wunderlich sw@simonwunderlich.de
We have found some networks in which nodes were constantly requesting other nodes BLA claim tables to synchronize, just to ask for that again once completed. The reason was that the crc checksum of the asked nodes were out of sync due to missing locking and multiple writes to the same crc checksum when adding/removing entries. Therefore the asked nodes constantly reported the wrong crc, which caused repeating requests.
To avoid multiple functions changing a backbone gateways crc entry at the same time, lock it using a spinlock.
