Subject: Re: [RESEND PATCH] ipc/mqueue: fix potential sleeping issue in

I guess you are not getting answers because ipc/mqueue.c has no clear
maintainer and at least I know nothing about mqueue and only very little
about netlink which is also involved here. Do I get it right this was
spotted by some checker, not really causing problems in the wild?
Another question (and this is why I've involved the networking people): Is
it really possible that we end up calling sk_free() from under
mqueue_flush_file() - at the time this is called we are closing the file
but it is not closed yet which means the socket inode is pretty much alive
which I'd *think* means there is still somebody holding socket reference
and thus sock_put() will not drop the last socket reference... Am I missing
something?
