[ Upstream commit 62c07983bef9d3e78e71189441e1a470f0d1e653 ]

Christophe Leroy reported a ~80ms latency spike
happening at first TCP connect() time.

This is because __inet_hash_connect() uses get_random_once()
to populate a perturbation table which became quite big
after commit 4c2c8f03a5ab ("tcp: increase source port perturb table to 2^16")

get_random_once() uses DO_ONCE(), which block hard irqs for the duration
of the operation.

This patch adds DO_ONCE_SLOW() which uses a mutex instead of a spinlock
for operations where we prefer to stay in process context.

Then __inet_hash_connect() can use get_random_slow_once()
to populate its perturbation table.

Fixes: 4c2c8f03a5ab ("tcp: increase source port perturb table to 2^16")
Fixes: 190cc82489f4 ("tcp: change source port randomizarion at connect() time")
