ipv6: tcp: add rcu locking in tcp_v6_send_synack()
commit 3e4006f0b86a5ae5eb0e8215f9a9e1db24506977 upstream. When first SYNACK is sent, we already hold rcu_read_lock(), but this is not true if a SYNACK is retransmitted, as a timer (soft) interrupt does not hold rcu_read_lock() Fixes: 45f6fad84cc30 ("ipv6: add complete rcu protection around np->opt") Reported-by: Dave Jones <davej@codemonkey.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> [ luis: backported to 3.16: adjusted context ] Signed-off-by: Luis Henriques <luis.henriques@canonical.com>
