commit7d2c3f54e6upstream. The code paths protected by the socket-lock do not use or modify the socket in a non-atomic fashion. The actions pertaining the socket do not even need to be handled as an atomic operation. Thus, the socket-lock can be safely ignored. This fixes a bug regarding scheduling in atomic as the callback function may be invoked in interrupt context. In addition, the sock_hold is moved before the AIO encrypt/decrypt operation to ensure that the socket is always present. This avoids a tiny race window where the socket is unprotected and yet used by the AIO operation. Finally, the release of resources for a crypto operation is moved into a common function of af_alg_free_resources.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
