Subject: [PATCH 4.3 47/55] inet: tcp: fix inetpeer_set_addr_v4()

4.3-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>

[ Upstream commit 887dc9f2cef6e98dcccf807da5e6faf4f60ba483 ]

David Ahern added a vif field in the a4 part of inetpeer_addr struct.

This broke IPv4 TCP fast open client side and more generally tcp metrics
cache, because inetpeer_addr_cmp() is now comparing two u32 instead of
one.

inetpeer_set_addr_v4() needs to properly init vif field, otherwise
the comparison result depends on uninitialized data.

Fixes: 192132b9a034 ("net: Add support for VRFs to inetpeer cache")
