inet: fix potential deadlock in reqsk_queue_unlink()
<snip>
Whohoo! It applies/builds cleanly to 4.1.10-rc1 and is running as
we speak. Let's hope that this fixes the lockups.


It definitely should help !

David, since patch is not yet seen on
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/bundle/davem/stable/?state=*
could you please add it to your queue ?

Seems to fix it for me as well. 3 systems have been running varying types of production-like loads with it for 14+ hours without hanging.
