Socket destruction flow and tls_device_down function sync against each
other using tls_device_lock and the context refcount, to guarantee the
device resources are freed via tls_dev_del() by the end of
tls_device_down.
In the following unfortunate flow, this won't happen:
- refcount is decreased to zero in tls_device_sk_destruct.
- tls_device_down starts, skips the context as refcount is zero, going
all the way until it flushes the gc work, and returns without freeing
the device resources.
- only then, tls_device_queue_ctx_destruction is called, queues the gc
work and frees the context's device resources.
Solve it by decreasing the refcount in the socket's destruction flow
under the tls_device_lock, for perfect synchronization. This does not
slow down the common likely destructor flow, in which both the refcount
is decreased and the spinlock is acquired, anyway.

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.
