Merge branch 'do-not-leave-dangling-sk-pointers-in-pf-create-functions'

Ignat Korchagin says:

====================
do not leave dangling sk pointers in pf->create functions

Some protocol family create() implementations have an error path after
allocating the sk object and calling sock_init_data(). sock_init_data()
attaches the allocated sk object to the sock object, provided by the
caller.

If the create() implementation errors out after calling sock_init_data(),
it releases the allocated sk object, but the caller ends up having a
dangling sk pointer in its sock object on return. Subsequent manipulations
on this sock object may try to access the sk pointer, because it is not
NULL thus creating a use-after-free scenario.

We have implemented a stable hotfix in commit 6310831
("net: explicitly clear the sk pointer, when pf->create fails"), but this
series aims to fix it properly by going through each of the pf->create()
implementations and making sure they all don't return a sock object with
a dangling pointer on error.
