[PATCH v2 2/2] tcp/dcpp: Don't disable bh around timewait_sock initialization

From: Valentin Schneider <vschneid@redhat.com>
Date: 2023-11-15 21:05:54
Also in: linux-rt-users, lkml
Subsystem: networking [general], networking [tcp], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Neal Cardwell, Linus Torvalds

Now that the tw_timer is armed *after* the hashdance, it is the last step
of the timewait initialization. We can thus enable softirqs without running
the risk of the timer handler running before the initialization is done.

This is conceptually a revert of
  cfac7f836a71 ("tcp/dccp: block bh before arming time_wait timer")
