The current locking schema used to protect the MPTCP data-path
requires the usage of the MPTCP workqueue to process the incoming
data, depending on trylock result.

The above poses scalability limits and introduces random delays
in MPTCP-level acks.

With this series we use a single spinlock to protect the MPTCP
data-path, removing the need for workqueue and delayed ack usage.

This additionally reduces the number of atomic operations required
per packet and cleans-up considerably the poll/wake-up code.

Paolo Abeni (6):
  mptcp: open code mptcp variant for lock_sock
  mptcp: implement wmem reservation
  mptcp: protect the rx path with the msk socket spinlock
  mptcp: allocate TX skbs in msk context
  mptcp: avoid a few atomic ops in the rx path
  mptcp: use mptcp release_cb for delayed tasks
