Subject: ping: implement proper locking
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 43a6684519ab0a6c52024b5e25322476cabad893 upstream.
We got a report of yet another bug in ping
http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2017/03/24/6
->disconnect() is not called with socket lock held.
Fix this by acquiring ping rwlock earlier.
Thanks to Daniel, Alexander and Andrey for letting us know this problem.
