Subject[PATCH 4.19 10/32] tcp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_tcp_challenge_ack_limit.
Date
From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@amazon.com>

commit db3815a2fa691da145cfbe834584f31ad75df9ff upstream.

While reading sysctl_tcp_challenge_ack_limit, it can be changed
concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its reader.

Fixes: 282f23c6ee34 ("tcp: implement RFC 5961 3.2")
