Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 529/671] xsk: avoid store-tearing when assigning queues

From: Björn Töpel <bjorn.topel@...el.com>

[ Upstream commit 94a997637c5b562fa0ca44fca1d2cd02ec08236f ]

Use WRITE_ONCE when doing the store of tx, rx, fq, and cq, to avoid
potential store-tearing. These members are read outside of the control
mutex in the mmap implementation.

Acked-by: Jonathan Lemon <jonathan.lemon@...il.com>
Fixes: 37b076933a8e ("xsk: add missing write- and data-dependency barrier")
