Kuniyuki Iwashima 4408d55a64 af_unix: Refactor unix_next_socket().
Currently, unix_next_socket() is overloaded depending on the 2nd argument.
If it is NULL, unix_next_socket() returns the first socket in the hash.  If
not NULL, it returns the next socket in the same hash list or the first
socket in the next non-empty hash list.

This patch refactors unix_next_socket() into two functions unix_get_first()
and unix_get_next().  unix_get_first() newly acquires a lock and returns
the first socket in the list.  unix_get_next() returns the next socket in a
list or releases a lock and falls back to unix_get_first().

In the following patch, bpf iter holds entire sockets in a list and always
releases the lock before .show().  It always calls unix_get_first() to
acquire a lock in each iteration.  So, this patch makes the change easier
to follow.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
