[PATCH v2 net-next 1/3] net: Make locking in sock_bindtoindex optional

From: Ferenc Fejes
Date: Sat May 30 2020 - 17:10:05 EST


The sock_bindtoindex intended for kernel wide usage however
it will lock the socket regardless of the context. This modification
relax this behavior optionally: locking the socket will be optional
by calling the sock_bindtoindex with lock_sk = true.

The modification applied to all users of the sock_bindtoindex.
