[bpf-net PATCH v2] bpf: sockmap missing NULL psock check

From: John Fastabend <john.fastabend@gmail.com>
Date: 2018-01-05 04:02:21
Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), the rest · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Linus Torvalds

Add psock NULL check to handle a racing sock event that can get the
sk_callback_lock before this case but after xchg happens causing the
refcnt to hit zero and sock user data (psock) to be null and queued
for garbage collection.

Also add a comment in the code because this is a bit subtle and
not obvious in my opinion.
