If fq_classify() recycles a struct fq_flow because
a socket structure has been reallocated, we do not
set sk->sk_pacing_status immediately, but later if the
flow becomes detached.
This means that any flow requiring pacing (BBR, or SO_MAX_PACING_RATE)
might fallback to TCP internal pacing, which requires a per-socket
high resolution timer, and therefore more cpu cycles.
Fixes: 218af599fa63 ("tcp: internal implementation for pacing")

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.
