AFAICS, that is a sparse false positive, tied to unlock_sock_fast() usage. unlock_sock_fast() conditionally releases the socket lock, according to it's bool argument, and that fools sparse check: any unlock_sock_fast() user splats it. IMHO such warning should be addressed into [un]lock_sock_fast() function[s] - if possible at all. Outside the scope of this series. Matthieu suggested adding some comment to note the above, but I boldly opposed, as current unlock_sock_fast() users don't do that. Cheers, Paolo
