tcp: Defer ts_recent changes until req is owned

Browse source 
Recently a bug was discovered where the server had entered TCP_ESTABLISHED
state, but the upper layers were not notified.

The same 5-tuple packet may be processed by different CPUSs, so two
CPUs may receive different ack packets at the same time when the
state is TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV.

In that case, req->ts_recent in tcp_check_req may be changed concurrently,
which will probably cause the newsk's ts_recent to be incorrectly large.
So that tcp_validate_incoming will fail. At this point, newsk will not be
able to enter the TCP_ESTABLISHED.

cpu1                                    cpu2
tcp_check_req
                                        tcp_check_req
 req->ts_recent = rcv_tsval = t1
                                         req->ts_recent = rcv_tsval = t2

 syn_recv_sock
  tcp_sk(child)->rx_opt.ts_recent = req->ts_recent = t2 // t1 < t2
tcp_child_process
 tcp_rcv_state_process
  tcp_validate_incoming
   tcp_paws_check
    if ((s32)(rx_opt->ts_recent - rx_opt->rcv_tsval) <= paws_win)
        // t2 - t1 > paws_win, failed
                                        tcp_v4_do_rcv
                                         tcp_rcv_state_process
                                         // TCP_ESTABLISHED

The cpu2's skb or a newly received skb will call tcp_v4_do_rcv to get
the newsk into the TCP_ESTABLISHED state, but at this point it is no
longer possible to notify the upper layer application. A notification
mechanism could be added here, but the fix is more complex, so the
current fix is used.

In tcp_check_req, req->ts_recent is used to assign a value to
tcp_sk(child)->rx_opt.ts_recent, so removing the change in req->ts_recent
and changing tcp_sk(child)->rx_opt.ts_recent directly after owning the
req fixes this bug.
