mainlining shenanigans
fd6055a806
When peeking, if a bad csum is discovered, the skb is unlinked from
the queue with __sk_queue_drop_skb and the peek operation restarted.
__sk_queue_drop_skb only drops packets that match the queue head.
This fails if the skb was found after the head, using SO_PEEK_OFF
socket option. This causes an infinite loop.
We MUST drop this problematic skb, and we can simply check if skb was
already removed by another thread, by looking at skb->next :
This pointer is set to NULL by the __skb_unlink() operation, that might
have happened only under the spinlock protection.
Many thanks to syzkaller team (and particularly Dmitry Vyukov who
provided us nice C reproducers exhibiting the lockup) and Willem de
Bruijn who provided first version for this patch and a test program.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
