xfrm: avoid spinlock in get_acqseq() used by xfrm user
Eric's version fixed it for pfkey. This one is for xfrm user. I thought about amortizing those two get_acqseq()s but it seems reasonable to have two of these sequence spaces for the two different interfaces. cheers, jamal commit d5168d5addbc999c94aacda8f28a4a173756a72b Author: Jamal Hadi Salim <hadi@cyberus.ca> Date: Tue Feb 16 06:51:22 2010 -0500 xfrm: avoid spinlock in get_acqseq() used by xfrm user This is in the same spirit as commit 28aecb9d7728dc26bf03ce7925fe622023a83a2a by Eric Dumazet. Use atomic_inc_return() in get_acqseq() to avoid taking a spinlock Signed-off-by: Jamal Hadi Salim <hadi@cyberus.ca> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
