Subject: [PATCH] tcp: fix FIONREAD/SIOCINQ

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

tcp_ioctl() tries to take into account if tcp socket received a FIN
to report correct number bytes in receive queue.

But its flaky because if the application ate the last skb,
we return 1 instead of 0.

Correct way to detect that FIN was received is to test SOCK_DONE.
