[net PATCH v3 1/3] net: netprio: fix files lock and remove uselessd_path bits

From: John Fastabend
Date: Tue Aug 14 2012 - 18:50:15 EST


Add lock to prevent a race with a file closing and also remove
useless and ugly sscanf code. The extra code was never needed
and the case it supposedly protected against is in fact handled
correctly by sock_from_file as pointed out by Al Viro.
