Similar to commit 87e9f0315952
("ipv4: fix a potential deadlock in mcast getsockopt() path"),
there is a deadlock scenario for IP_ROUTER_ALERT too:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(rtnl_mutex);
lock(sk_lock-AF_INET);
lock(rtnl_mutex);
lock(sk_lock-AF_INET);
Fix this by always locking RTNL first on all setsockopt() paths.
Note, after this patch ip_ra_lock is no longer needed either.

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.
