[NET]: Fix bug in sk_filter race cures.
Looks like this might be causing problems, at least for me on ppc. This
happened during a normal boot, right around first interface config/dhcp
run..

That's the deref of fp:
static void sk_filter_delayed_uncharge(struct sock *sk, struct sk_filter *fp)
{
unsigned int size = sk_filter_len(fp);
...
That is called from sk_attach_filter():
...
rcu_read_lock_bh();
old_fp = rcu_dereference(sk->sk_filter);
rcu_assign_pointer(sk->sk_filter, fp);
rcu_read_unlock_bh();
sk_filter_delayed_uncharge(sk, old_fp);
return 0;
...
So, looks like rcu_dereference() returned NULL. I don't know the
filter code at all, but it seems like it might be a valid case?
sk_detach_filter() seems to handle a NULL sk_filter, at least.
So, this needs review by someone who knows the filter, but it fixes the
problem for me:
