tcp: sysctl: Fix a race to avoid unexpected 0 window from space
Because sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale could be changed any time, so there is one race in tcp_win_from_space. For example, 1.sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale<=0 (sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale is negative now) 2.space>>(-sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale) (sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale is postive now) As a result, tcp_win_from_space returns 0. It is unexpected. Certainly if the compiler put the sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale into one register firstly, then use the register directly, it would be ok. But we could not depend on the compiler behavior. Signed-off-by: Gao Feng <fgao@ikuai8.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
