Why in the previous patch we release the socket after calling
default_write_space() and now we are moving before?


My intention was to keep the two behavioral changes separately
testable. Patch 3 is a complete intermediate state: it coalesces
repeated sk_write_space()
notifications while preserving the existing under-lock callback
context. Patch 4 then adds data-ready coalescing and moves both
deferred notifications
after release_sock(). Patch 4 therefore builds on Patch 3 rather than fixing it.

Okay, I see, makes sense, please make it clear in the commit description.

Thanks,
Stefano
