packet: fix tp_reserve race in packet_set_ring
commit c27927e372f0785f3303e8fad94b85945e2c97b7 upstream.
Updates to tp_reserve can race with reads of the field in
packet_set_ring. Avoid this by holding the socket lock during
updates in setsockopt PACKET_RESERVE.
This bug was discovered by syzkaller.
