Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 2/4] tcp: move reqsk_fastopen_remove to net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen.c

This function belongs to TCP stack, not to net/core/request_sock.c

We get rid of the now empty request_sock.c in the following patch.

- * This function is called to set a Fast Open socket's "fastopen_rsk" field
- * to NULL when a TFO socket no longer needs to access the request_sock.
- * This happens only after 3WHS has been either completed or aborted (e.g.,
- * RST is received).
- *
- * Before TFO, a child socket is created only after 3WHS is completed,
- * hence it never needs to access the request_sock. things get a lot more
- * complex with TFO. A child socket, accepted or not, has to access its
- * request_sock for 3WHS processing, e.g., to retransmit SYN-ACK pkts,
- * until 3WHS is either completed or aborted. Afterwards the req will stay
- * until either the child socket is accepted, or in the rare case when the
- * listener is closed before the child is accepted.
- *
- * In short, a request socket is only freed after BOTH 3WHS has completed
- * (or aborted) and the child socket has been accepted (or listener closed).
- * When a child socket is accepted, its corresponding req->sk is set to
- * NULL since it's no longer needed. More importantly, "req->sk == NULL"
- * will be used by the code below to determine if a child socket has been
- * accepted or not, and the check is protected by the fastopenq->lock
- * described below.
- *
- * Note that fastopen_rsk is only accessed from the child socket's context
- * with its socket lock held. But a request_sock (req) can be accessed by
- * both its child socket through fastopen_rsk, and a listener socket through
- * icsk_accept_queue.rskq_accept_head. To protect the access a simple spin
- * lock per listener "icsk->icsk_accept_queue.fastopenq->lock" is created.
- * only in the rare case when both the listener and the child locks are held,
- * e.g., in inet_csk_listen_stop() do we not need to acquire the lock.
- * The lock also protects other fields such as fastopenq->qlen, which is
- * decremented by this function when fastopen_rsk is no longer needed.
- *
- * Note that another solution was to simply use the existing socket lock
- * from the listener. But first socket lock is difficult to use. It is not
- * a simple spin lock - one must consider sock_owned_by_user() and arrange
- * to use sk_add_backlog() stuff. But what really makes it infeasible is the
- * locking hierarchy violation. E.g., inet_csk_listen_stop() may try to
- * acquire a child's lock while holding listener's socket lock.
- *
- * This function also sets "treq->tfo_listener" to false.
- * treq->tfo_listener is used by the listener so it is protected by the
- * fastopenq->lock in this function.
