Nope, still the same BUGs, I do not have the net namespaces configured, so the
version of sock_prot_inuse_add() which is used is defined a few lines below:
static DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct prot_inuse, prot_inuse);
void sock_prot_inuse_add(struct net *net, struct proto *prot, int val)
{
__get_cpu_var(prot_inuse).val[prot->inuse_idx] += val;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(sock_prot_inuse_add);
Looks like another case of percpu variables Chirag has benn fixing.
