Thanks Nik. I'm afraid this adds bug when netns is exiting.
Currently, we wait until timer has finished, but after the change
we might destroy percpu counter while a timer is still executing on
another cpu.
I pushed a patch series to
https://git.breakpoint.cc/cgit/fw/net.git/log/?h=inetfrag_fixes_02
It includes this patch with a small change -- deferral of the percpu
counter subtraction until after queue has been free'd.
Frank -- it would be great if you could test with the four patches in
that series applied.
I'll then add your tested-by Tag to all of them before submitting this.
Thanks again for all your help in getting this fixed!
