PATCH 1/1 Fragments: fix race between inet_frag_find and inet_frag_secret_rebuild

The problem is that while we work w/o the inet_frags.lock even read-locked the secret rebuild timer may occur (on another CPU, since BHs are still disables in the inet_frag_find) and change the rnd seed for ipv4/6 fragments.

It was caused by my patch fd9e63544cac30a34c951f0ec958038f0529e244 ([INET]: Omit double hash calculations in xxx_frag_intern) late in the 2.6.24 kernel, so this should probably be queued to -stable.

Maybe it's a matter of taste: since there is this "#ifdef CONFIG_SMP", and the new comment concerns with "other CPU", why this re-calculation isn't done only for SMP? And, btw., probably __acquires/__releases annotations could be added with this patch.

Because the hash value is required also *outside* this ifdef and adding a fancier logic is probably not good for a -rc7 fix.

However, I will re-consider this for net-next.

This is also a net-next material (I hope Dave agrees with me on both).

I'm not sure what fancier logic do you mean: I've thought about simply leaving the "hash" as functions argument as it is, and only adding this recalculation under #ifdef CONFIG_SMP, but I can miss something...

I've applied Pavel's fix with this comment typo cure.

Thanks.
