    tcp: remove invalid __rcu annotation · 7ae8639c
    Eric Dumazet authored
    struct tcp_fastopen_context has a field named tfm, which is a pointer
    to a crypto_cipher structure.
    
    It currently has a __rcu annotation, which is not needed at all.
    
    tcp_fastopen_ctx is the pointer fetched by rcu_dereference(), but once
    we have a pointer to current tcp_fastopen_context, we do not use/need
    rcu_dereference() to access tfm.
    
    This fixes a lot of sparse errors like the following :
    
    net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen.c:21:31: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
    net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen.c:21:31:    expected struct crypto_cipher *tfm
    net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen.c:21:31:    got struct crypto_cipher [noderef] <asn:4>*tfm
