Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net/tcp: Fix socket memory leak in TCP-AO failure handling for IPv6
When tcp_ao_copy_all_matching() fails in tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock() it just
exits the function. This ends up causing a memory-leak:
unreferenced object 0xffff0000281a8200 (size 2496):
comm "softirq", pid 0, jiffies 4295174684
hex dump (first 32 bytes):
7f 00 00 06 7f 00 00 06 00 00 00 00 cb a8 88 13 ................
0a 00 03 61 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ...a............

__netif_receive_skb_list_core+0x16c/0x200
netif_receive_skb_list_internal+0x1f0/0x2d0
This is because in tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock (and the IPv4 counterpart), when
exiting upon error, inet_csk_prepare_forced_close() and tcp_done() need
to be called. They make sure the newsk will end up being correctly
free'd.
tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() makes this very clear by having the put_and_exit
label that takes care of things. So, this patch here makes sure
tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock and tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock have similar
error-handling and thus fixes the leak for TCP-AO.
