tcp: md5: remove spinlock usage in fast path
TCP md5 code uses per cpu variables but protects access to them with a shared spinlock, which is a contention point. [ tcp_md5sig_pool_lock is locked twice per incoming packet ] Makes things much simpler, by allocating crypto structures once, first time a socket needs md5 keys, and not deallocating them as they are really small. Next step would be to allow crypto allocations being done in a NUMA aware way. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.
