Eric Dumazet f8cc62ca3e net: add a READ_ONCE() in skb_peek_tail()
skb_peek_tail() can be used without protection of a lock,
as spotted by KCSAN [1]

In order to avoid load-stearing, add a READ_ONCE()

Note that the corresponding WRITE_ONCE() are already there.

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.
