[PATCH 4.15 110/146] netfilter: xt_hashlimit: fix lock imbalance

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Mar 13 2018 - 11:32:52 EST


4.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit de526f401284e1638d4c97cb5a4c292ac3f37655 upstream.

syszkaller found that rcu was not held in hashlimit_mt_common()

We only need to enable BH at this point.
