====================
raw/ping: Fix locking in /proc/net/{raw,icmp}.
The first patch fixes a NULL deref for /proc/net/raw and second one fixes
the same issue for ping sockets.
The first patch also converts hlist_nulls to hlist, but this is because
the current code uses sk_nulls_for_each() for lockless readers, instead
of sk_nulls_for_each_rcu() which adds memory barrier, but raw sockets
does not use the nulls marker nor SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU in the first place.
OTOH, the ping sockets already uses sk_nulls_for_each_rcu(), and such
conversion can be posted later for net-next.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
