[ Upstream commit 6ffc57ea004234d9373c57b204fd10370a69f392 ]
A recent patch added READ_ONCE() in packet_bind() and packet_bind_spkt()
This is better handled by reading pkt_sk(sk)->num later
in packet_do_bind() while appropriate lock is held.
READ_ONCE() in writers are often an evidence of something being wrong.
Fixes: 822b5a1c17df ("af_packet: Fix data-races of pkt_sk(sk)->num.")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
