Eric Dumazet 074b5c1221 net: avoid potential false sharing in neighbor related code
[ Upstream commit 25c7a6d1f90e208ec27ca854b1381ed39842ec57 ]

There are common instances of the following construct :

	if (n->confirmed != now)
		n->confirmed = now;

A C compiler could legally remove the conditional.

Use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() to avoid this problem.

README

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.

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.
