Subject[PATCH 3.12 44/72] net: avoid NULL deref in inet_ctl_sock_destroy()
Date
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

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

===============

[ Upstream commit 8fa677d2706d325d71dab91bf6e6512c05214e37 ]

Under low memory conditions, tcp_sk_init() and icmp_sk_init()
can both iterate on all possible cpus and call inet_ctl_sock_destroy(),
with eventual NULL pointer.
