[PATCH net v2 2/2] Revert "sockfs: switch to ->free_inode()"
From: SeongJae Park
Date: Tue May 05 2020 - 04:11:36 EST
From: SeongJae Park <sjpark@xxxxxxxxx>
This reverts commit 6d7855c54e1e269275d7c504f8f62a0b7a5b3f18.
The commit 6d7855c54e1e ("sockfs: switch to ->free_inode()") made the
deallocation of 'socket_alloc' to be done asynchronously using RCU, as
same to 'sock.wq'.
The change made 'socket_alloc' live longer than before. As a result,
user programs intensively repeating allocations and deallocations of
sockets could cause memory pressure on recent kernels.
To avoid the problem, this commit reverts the change.
Fixes: 6d7855c54e1e ("sockfs: switch to ->free_inode()")
Fixes: 333f7909a857 ("coallocate socket_sq with socket itself")
