ipv6: fix a potential deadlock in do_ipv6_setsockopt() Baozeng reported this deadlock case: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock([ 165.136033] sk_lock-AF_INET6); lock([ 165.136033] rtnl_mutex); lock([ 165.136033] sk_lock-AF_INET6); lock([ 165.136033] rtnl_mutex); Similar to commit 87e9f0315952 ("ipv4: fix a potential deadlock in mcast getsockopt() path") this is due to we still have a case, ipv6_sock_mc_close(), where we acquire sk_lock before rtnl_lock. Close this deadlock with the similar solution, that is always acquire rtnl lock first.
