Subject: [v2.6.34-stable 044/213] net: guard tcp_set_keepalive() to tcp sockets

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

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

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

commit 3e10986d1d698140747fcfc2761ec9cb64c1d582 upstream.

Its possible to use RAW sockets to get a crash in
tcp_set_keepalive() / sk_reset_timer()

Fix is to make sure socket is a SOCK_STREAM one.
