Subject: [PATCH 4.14 33/71] net/tls: Fix inverted error codes to avoid endless loop

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

[ Upstream commit 30be8f8dba1bd2aff73e8447d59228471233a3d4 ]

sendfile() calls can hang endless with using Kernel TLS if a socket error occurs.
Socket error codes must be inverted by Kernel TLS before returning because
they are stored with positive sign. If returned non-inverted they are
interpreted as number of bytes sent, causing endless looping of the
splice mechanic behind sendfile().
