Subject[PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 206/211] fou: clean up socket with kfree_rcu
Date
4.2.8-ckt1 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org>

[ Upstream commit 3036facbb7be3a169e35be3b271162b0fa564a2d ]

fou->udp_offloads is managed by RCU. As it is actually included inside
the fou sockets, we cannot let the memory go out of scope before a grace
period. We either can synchronize_rcu or switch over to kfree_rcu to
manage the sockets. kfree_rcu seems appropriate as it is used by vxlan
and geneve.
