4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh soheil@google.com
tcp_write_queue_purge clears all the SKBs in the write queue but does not reset the sk_send_head. As a result, we can have a NULL pointer dereference anywhere that we use tcp_send_head instead of the tcp_write_queue_tail.
For example, after a27fd7a8ed38 (tcp: purge write queue upon RST), we can purge the write queue on RST. Prior to 75c119afe14f (tcp: implement rb-tree based retransmit queue), tcp_push will only check tcp_send_head and then accesses tcp_write_queue_tail to send the actual SKB. As a result, it will dereference a NULL pointer.
This has been reported twice for 4.14 where we don't have 75c119afe14f:
