Jonathan Heathcote reported a regression caused by blamed commit
on aarch64 architecture.
x86 happens to have irq-safe __this_cpu_add_return()
and __this_cpu_sub(), but this is not generic.
I think my confusion came from "struct sock" argument,
because these helpers are called with a locked socket.
But the memory accounting is per-proto (and per-cpu after
the blamed commit). We might cleanup these helpers later
to directly accept a "struct proto *proto" argument.
Switch to this_cpu_add_return() and this_cpu_xchg()
operations, and get rid of preempt_disable()/preempt_enable() pairs.
Fast path becomes a bit faster as a result :)
Many thanks to Jonathan Heathcote for his awesome report and
investigations.

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 reStructuredText 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.
