Martin Willi a12795d795 esp: Skip TX bytes accounting when sending from a request socket
[ Upstream commit 09db512411 ]

On ESP output, sk_wmem_alloc is incremented for the added padding if a
socket is associated to the skb. When replying with TCP SYNACKs over
IPsec, the associated sk is a casted request socket, only. Increasing
sk_wmem_alloc on a request socket results in a write at an arbitrary
struct offset. In the best case, this produces the following WARNING:

The issue triggers only when not using TCP syncookies, as for syncookies
no socket is associated.

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.
