Re: [PATCH net-next] tcp: fix lockdep splat in tcp_snd_una_update()

From: Eric Dumazet <redacted>

tcp_snd_una_update() and tcp_rcv_nxt_update() call
u64_stats_update_begin() either from process context or BH handler.

This triggers a lockdep splat on 32bit & SMP builds.

We could add u64_stats_update_begin_bh() variant but this would
slow down 32bit builds with useless local_disable_bh() and
local_enable_bh() pairs, since we own the socket lock at this point.

I add sock_owned_by_me() helper to have proper lockdep support
even on 64bit builds, and new u64_stats_update_begin_raw()
and u64_stats_update_end_raw methods.
