    inetpeer: Optimize inet_getid() · 2c1409a0
    Eric Dumazet authored
    While investigating for network latencies, I found inet_getid() was a
    contention point for some workloads, as inet_peer_idlock is shared
    by all inet_getid() users regardless of peers.
    
    One way to fix this is to make ip_id_count an atomic_t instead
    of __u16, and use atomic_add_return().
    
    In order to keep sizeof(struct inet_peer) = 64 on 64bit arches
    tcp_ts_stamp is also converted to __u32 instead of "unsigned long".
