From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 6bae8ceb90ba76cdba39496db936164fa672b9be ] While reading rs->interval and rs->burst, they can be changed concurrently via sysctl (e.g. net_ratelimit_state). Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to their readers. Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2") Signed-off-by: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
