Subject: [PATCH 5.18 121/231] tcp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_tcp_ecn_fallback.

From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@...zon.com>

[ Upstream commit 12b8d9ca7e678abc48195294494f1815b555d658 ]

While reading sysctl_tcp_ecn_fallback, it can be changed concurrently.
Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its reader.

Fixes: 492135557dc0 ("tcp: add rfc3168, section 6.1.1.1. fallback")
