Fix a race when multiple sockets are simultaneously calling sendto()
when the completion ring is shared in the SKB case. This is the case
when you share the same netdev and queue id through the
XDP_SHARED_UMEM bind flag. The problem is that multiple processes can
be in xsk_generic_xmit() and call the backpressure mechanism in
xskq_prod_reserve(xs->pool->cq). As this is a shared resource in this
specific scenario, a race might occur since the rings are
single-producer single-consumer.
Fix this by moving the tx_completion_lock from the socket to the pool
as the pool is shared between the sockets that share the completion
ring. (The pool is not shared when this is not the case.) And then
protect the accesses to xskq_prod_reserve() with this lock. The
tx_completion_lock is renamed cq_lock to better reflect that it
protects accesses to the potentially shared completion ring.

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.
