Subject: [net][PATCH v2 2/2] RDS: Fix the atomicity for congestion map update

Two different threads with different rds sockets may be in
rds_recv_rcvbuf_delta() via receive path. If their ports
both map to the same word in the congestion map, then
using non-atomic ops to update it could cause the map to
be incorrect. Lets use atomics to avoid such an issue.

Full credit to Wengang <wen.gang.wang@...cle.com> for
finding the issue, analysing it and also pointing out
to offending code with spin lock based fix.
