Vadim Lomovtsev eebe53e87f net: sunrpc: svcsock: fix NULL-pointer exception
While running nfs/connectathon tests kernel NULL-pointer exception
has been observed due to races in svcsock.c.

Race is appear when kernel accepts connection by kernel_accept
(which creates new socket) and start queuing ingress packets
to new socket. This happens in ksoftirq context which could run
concurrently on a different core while new socket setup is not done yet.

The fix is to re-order socket user data init sequence and add
write/read barrier calls to be sure that we got proper values
for callback pointers before actually calling them.

Test results: nfs/connectathon reports '0' failed tests for about 200+ iterations.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
