Subject: [PATCH net-next 13/14] tcp: constify tcp_syn_flood_action() socket argument

tcp_syn_flood_action() will soon be called with unlocked socket.
In order to avoid SYN flood warning being emitted multiple times,
use xchg().
Extend max_qlen_log and synflood_warned fields in struct listen_sock
to u32
