If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Eric Dumazet [ Upstream commit f98f4514d07871da7a113dd9e3e330743fd70ae4 ] We need to tell compiler it must not read f->num_members multiple times. Otherwise testing if num is not zero is flaky, and we could attempt an invalid divide by 0 in fanout_demux_cpu() Note bug was present in packet_rcv_fanout_hash() and packet_rcv_fanout_lb() but final 3.1 had a simple location after commit 95ec3eb417115fb ("packet: Add 'cpu' fanout policy.")
