[PATCH 4.4 048/159] llc: avoid blocking in llc_sap_close()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Nov 22 2019 - 06:27:13 EST


From: Cong Wang <xiyou.wangcong@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 9708d2b5b7c648e8e0a40d11e8cea12f6277f33c ]

llc_sap_close() is called by llc_sap_put() which
could be called in BH context in llc_rcv(). We can't
block in BH.

There is no reason to block it here, kfree_rcu() should
be sufficient.
