kcm: do not attach PF_KCM sockets to avoid deadlock


[ Upstream commit 351050ec ]

syzkaller had no problem to trigger a deadlock, attaching a KCM socket
to another one (or itself). (original syzkaller report was a very
confusing lockdep splat during a sendmsg())

It seems KCM claims to only support TCP, but no enforcement is done,
so we might need to add additional checks.

Fixes: ab7ac4eb ("kcm: Kernel Connection Multiplexor module")
