[PATCH net 02/12] netrom: Fix a data-race around sysctl_netrom_obsolescence_count_initialiser

From: Jason Xing <hidden>
Date: 2024-03-04 08:20:59
Also in: linux-hams
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Jason Xing <kernelxing@tencent.com>

We need to protect the reader reading the sysctl value
because the value can be changed concurrently.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
