Subject: [PATCH 5.4 04/34] tcp: Fix data-races around sysctl_tcp_dsack.

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

commit 58ebb1c8b35a8ef38cd6927431e0fa7b173a632d upstream.

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

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
