The AF_XDP socket struct can exist in three different, implicit
states: setup, bound and released. Setup is prior the socket has been
bound to a device. Bound is when the socket is active for receive and
send. Released is when the process/userspace side of the socket is
released, but the sock object is still lingering, e.g. when there is a
reference to the socket in an XSKMAP after process termination.
The Rx fast-path code uses the "dev" member of struct xdp_sock to
check whether a socket is bound or relased, and the Tx code uses the
struct xdp_umem "xsk_list" member in conjunction with "dev" to
determine the state of a socket.
However, the transition from bound to released did not tear the socket
down in correct order.
On the Rx side "dev" was cleared after synchronize_net() making the
synchronization useless. On the Tx side, the internal queues were
destroyed prior removing them from the "xsk_list".
This commit corrects the cleanup order, and by doing so
xdp_del_sk_umem() can be simplified and one synchronize_net() can be
removed.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
