6.5-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Paolo Abeni pabeni@redhat.com
commit 6db8a37dfc541e059851652cfd4f0bb13b8ff6af upstream.
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.
