commit6db8a37dfcupstream. The MPTCP protocol can acquire the subflow-level socket lock and cause the tcp backlog usage. When inserting new skbs into the backlog, the stack will try to coalesce them. Currently, we have no check in place to ensure that such coalescing will respect the MPTCP-level DSS, and that may cause data stream corruption, as reported by Christoph. Address the issue by adding the relevant admission check for coalescing in tcp_add_backlog(). Note the issue is not easy to reproduce, as the MPTCP protocol tries hard to avoid acquiring the subflow-level socket lock.

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.
