net: net_enable_timestamp() can be called from irq contexts
It is now very clear that silly TCP listeners might play with enabling/disabling timestamping while new children are added to their accept queue. Meaning net_enable_timestamp() can be called from BH context while current state of the static key is not enabled. Lets play safe and allow all contexts. The work queue is scheduled only under the problematic cases, which are the static key enable/disable transition, to not slow down critical paths. This extends and improves what we did in commit 5fa8bbda38c6 ("net: use a work queue to defer net_disable_timestamp() work") Fixes: b90e5794c5bd ("net: dont call jump_label_dec from irq context") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Reported-by: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
