6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 1b536948e805aab61a48c5aa5db10c9afee880bd ] Once sk->sk_state is changed to TCP_LISTEN, it never changes. unix_accept() takes the advantage and reads sk->sk_state without holding unix_state_lock(). Let's use READ_ONCE() there.
