[PATCH 4.4 061/137] tcp/dccp: remove obsolete WARN_ON() in icmp handlers

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Apr 17 2016 - 22:37:53 EST


4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit e316ea62e3203d524ff0239a40c56d3a39ad1b5c ]

Now SYN_RECV request sockets are installed in ehash table, an ICMP
handler can find a request socket while another cpu handles an incoming
packet transforming this SYN_RECV request socket into an ESTABLISHED
socket.

We need to remove the now obsolete WARN_ON(req->sk), since req->sk
is set when a new child is created and added into listener accept queue.

If this race happens, the ICMP will do nothing special.
