[PATCH v1 net 15/15] nexthop: Fix data-races around nexthop_compat_mode.

From: Kuniyuki Iwashima
Date: Mon Jul 11 2022 - 20:22:11 EST


While reading nexthop_compat_mode, it can be changed concurrently.
Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its readers.

Fixes: 4f80116d3df3 ("net: ipv4: add sysctl for nexthop api compatibility mode")
