net: Fix sock_wfree() race
Commit 2b85a34e911bf483c27cfdd124aeb1605145dc80 (net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx) opens a window in sock_wfree() where another cpu might free the socket we are working on. A fix is to call sk->sk_write_space(sk) while still holding a reference on sk. Reported-by: Jike Song <albcamus@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
