[ Upstream commit2ab2ddd301] Timer handlers do not imply rcu_read_lock(), so my recent fix triggered a LOCKDEP warning when SYNACK is retransmit. Lets add rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() pairs around ireq->ireq_opt usages instead of guessing what is done by callers, since it is not worth the pain. Get rid of ireq_opt_deref() helper since it hides the logic without real benefit, since it is now a standard rcu_dereference().

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.
