[PATCH net-next 12/14] rxrpc: Don't transmit an ACK if there's no reason set

flat view

Subsystem: networking [general], rxrpc sockets (af_rxrpc), the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, David Howells, Marc Dionne, Linus Torvalds

Don't transmit an ACK if call->ackr_reason in unset.  There's the
possibility of a race between recvmsg() sending an ACK and the background
processing thread trying to send the same one.
