4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Jason Baron <jbaron@xxxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit 56d806222ace4c3aeae516cd7a855340fb2839d8 ]

sock_reset_flag() maps to __clear_bit() not the atomic version clear_bit().
Thus, we need smp_mb(), smp_mb__after_atomic() is not sufficient.
