From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 47e6ab24e8c6e3ca10ceb5835413f401f90de4bf ] While reading sysctl_tcp_max_orphans, it can be changed concurrently. So, we need to add READ_ONCE() to avoid a data-race. Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2") Signed-off-by: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
