Subject: [PATCH 5.4 24/87] tcp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_tcp_mtu_probe_floor.

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

[ Upstream commit 8e92d4423615a5257d0d871fc067aa561f597deb ]

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

Fixes: c04b79b6cfd7 ("tcp: add new tcp_mtu_probe_floor sysctl")
