From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 73318c4b7dbd0e781aaababff17376b2894745c0 ] While reading sysctl_fib_sync_mem, it can be changed concurrently. So, we need to add READ_ONCE() to avoid a data-race. Fixes: 9ab948a91b2c ("ipv4: Allow amount of dirty memory from fib resizing to be controllable") Signed-off-by: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
