Subject: [PATCH 4.3 30/71] tcp: initialize tp->copied_seq in case of cross SYN connection

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

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

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

[ Upstream commit 142a2e7ece8d8ac0e818eb2c91f99ca894730e2a ]

Dmitry provided a syzkaller (http://github.com/google/syzkaller)
generated program that triggers the WARNING at
net/ipv4/tcp.c:1729 in tcp_recvmsg() :

WARN_ON(tp->copied_seq != tp->rcv_nxt &&
        !(flags & (MSG_PEEK | MSG_TRUNC)));

His program is specifically attempting a Cross SYN TCP exchange,
that we support (for the pleasure of hackers ?), but it looks we
lack proper tcp->copied_seq initialization.

Thanks again Dmitry for your report and testings.
