From: "D. Wythe" <alibuda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Move code ahead which has no need protected by clcsock_release_lock, On the one hand, this reduces the granularity of the critical area, and on the other hand, for the inet version of SMC, the code protected by the critical area is meaningless. This patch make it possible to invoke smc_switch_to_fallback() in any context (IRQ .etc) within inet sock version of SMC. Signed-off-by: D.
