Subject: Re: [PATCH net-next v2] Use READ/WRITE_ONCE() for IP local_port_range.

> Commit 227b60f5102cd added a seqlock to ensure that the low and high
> port numbers were always updated together.
> This is overkill because the two 16bit port numbers can be held in
> a u32 and read/written in a single instruction.
> 
> More recently 91d0b78c5177f added support for finer per-socket limits.
> The user-supplied value is 'high << 16 | low' but they are held
> separately and the socket options protected by the socket lock.
> 
> Use a u32 containing 'high << 16 | low' for both the 'net' and 'sk'
> fields and use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() to ensure both values are
> always updated together.
> 
> Change (the now trival) inet_get_local_port_range() to a static inline
> to optimise the calling code.
> (In particular avoiding returning integers by reference.)
