Eric Dumazet ca795bf123 indirect_call_wrapper: do not reevaluate function pointer 
[ Upstream commit 710f5c7658 ]

We have an increasing number of READ_ONCE(xxx->function)
combined with INDIRECT_CALL_[1234]() helpers.

Unfortunately this forces INDIRECT_CALL_[1234]() to read
xxx->function many times, which is not what we wanted.

Fix these macros so that xxx->function value is not reloaded.

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 reStructuredText 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.
