net/rds: RDS-TCP: Always create a new rds_sock for an incoming connection.
When running RDS over TCP, the active (client) side connects to the
listening ("passive") side at the RDS_TCP_PORT. After the connection
is established, if the client side reboots (potentially without even
sending a FIN) the server still has a TCP socket in the esablished
state. If the server-side now gets a new SYN comes from the client
with a different client port, TCP will create a new socket-pair, but
the RDS layer will incorrectly pull up the old rds_connection (which
is still associated with the stale t_sock and RDS socket state).
This patch corrects this behavior by having rds_tcp_accept_one()
always create a new connection for an incoming TCP SYN.
The rds and tcp state associated with the old socket-pair is cleaned
up via the rds_tcp_state_change() callback which would typically be
invoked in most cases when the client-TCP sends a FIN on TCP restart,
triggering a transition to CLOSE_WAIT state. In the rarer event of client
death without a FIN, TCP_KEEPALIVE probes on the socket will detect
the stale socket, and the TCP transition to CLOSE state will trigger
the RDS state cleanup.
