tcp: avoid fastopen API to be used on AF_UNSPEC


[ Upstream commit ba615f67 ]

Fastopen API should be used to perform fastopen operations on the TCP
socket. It does not make sense to use fastopen API to perform disconnect
by calling it with AF_UNSPEC. The fastopen data path is also prone to
race conditions and bugs when using with AF_UNSPEC.

One issue reported and analyzed by Vegard Nossum is as follows:

Thread A:                            Thread B:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
sendto()
 - tcp_sendmsg()
     - sk_stream_memory_free() = 0
         - goto wait_for_sndbuf
	     - sk_stream_wait_memory()
	        - sk_wait_event() // sleep
          |                          sendto(flags=MSG_FASTOPEN, dest_addr=AF_UNSPEC)
	  |                           - tcp_sendmsg()
	  |                              - tcp_sendmsg_fastopen()
	  |                                 - __inet_stream_connect()
	  |                                    - tcp_disconnect() //because of AF_UNSPEC
	  |                                       - tcp_transmit_skb()// send RST
	  |                                    - return 0; // no reconnect!
	  |                           - sk_stream_wait_connect()
	  |                                 - sock_error()
	  |                                    - xchg(&sk->sk_err, 0)
	  |                                    - return -ECONNRESET
	- ... // wake up, see sk->sk_err == 0
    - skb_entail() on TCP_CLOSE socket

If the connection is reopened then we will send a brand new SYN packet
after thread A has already queued a buffer. At this point I think the
socket internal state (sequence numbers etc.) becomes messed up.

When the new connection is closed, the FIN-ACK is rejected because the
sequence number is outside the window. The other side tries to
retransmit,
but __tcp_retransmit_skb() calls tcp_trim_head() on an empty skb which
corrupts the skb data length and hits a BUG() in copy_and_csum_bits().
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Hence, this patch adds a check for AF_UNSPEC in the fastopen data path
and return EOPNOTSUPP to user if such case happens.
