Subject: tcp: fastopen: avoid negative sk_forward_alloc

From: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 76061f631c2ea4ab9c4d66f3a96ecc5737f5aaf7 ]

When DATA and/or FIN are carried in a SYN/ACK message or SYN message, we append an skb in socket receive queue, but we forget to call sk_forced_mem_schedule().

Effect is that the socket has a negative sk->sk_forward_alloc as long as the message is not read by the application.

Josh Hunt fixed a similar issue in commit d22e15371811 ("tcp: fix tcp fin memory accounting")
