We will soon introduce an optional per-netns ehash and access hash tables via net->ipv4.tcp_death_row->hashinfo instead of &tcp_hashinfo in most places. It could harm the fast path because dereferences of two fields in net and tcp_death_row might incur two extra cache line misses. To save one dereference, let's place tcp_death_row back in netns_ipv4 and fetch hashinfo via net->ipv4.tcp_death_row"."hashinfo. Note tcp_death_row was initially placed in netns_ipv4, and commitfbb8295248("tcp: allocate tcp_death_row outside of struct netns_ipv4") changed it to a pointer so that we can fire TIME_WAIT timers after freeing net. However, we don't do so after commit04c494e68a("Revert "tcp/dccp: get rid of inet_twsk_purge()""), so we need not define tcp_death_row as a pointer. Also, we move refcount_dec_and_test(&tw_refcount) from tcp_sk_exit() to tcp_sk_exit_batch() as a debug check.

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.
