[PATCH v2 net 07/12] tcp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_tcp_max_orphans.

From: Kuniyuki Iwashima
Date: Wed Jul 06 2022 - 19:42:58 EST


While reading sysctl_tcp_max_orphans, it can be changed concurrently.
So, we need to add READ_ONCE() to avoid a data-race.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
