    inet: frags: remove the WARN_ON from inet_evict_bucket · d70127e8
    Nikolay Aleksandrov authored
    The WARN_ON in inet_evict_bucket can be triggered by a valid case:
    inet_frag_kill and inet_evict_bucket can be running in parallel on the
    same queue which means that there has been at least one more ref added
    by a previous inet_frag_find call, but inet_frag_kill can delete the
    timer before inet_evict_bucket which will cause the WARN_ON() there to
    trigger since we'll have refcnt!=1. Now, this case is valid because the
    queue is being "killed" for some reason (removed from the chain list and
    its timer deleted) so it will get destroyed in the end by one of the
    inet_frag_put() calls which reaches 0 i.e. refcnt is still valid.
