Subject[PATCH 4.14 13/52] tcp: remove buggy call to tcp_v6_restore_cb()
Date
4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>


[ Upstream commit 3016dad75b48279e579117ee3ed566ba90a3b023 ]

tcp_v6_send_reset() expects to receive an skb with skb->cb[] layout as
used in TCP stack.
MD5 lookup uses tcp_v6_iif() and tcp_v6_sdif() and thus
TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->header.h6

This patch probably fixes RST packets sent on behalf of a timewait md5
ipv6 socket.

Before Florian patch, tcp_v6_restore_cb() was needed before jumping to
no_tcp_socket label.

Fixes: 271c3b9b7bda ("tcp: honour SO_BINDTODEVICE for TW_RST case too")
