Subject: [REGRESSION] Warning in tcp_fastretrans_alert() of net/ipv4/tcp_input.c

Hello.

Since, IIRC, v4.11, there is some regression in TCP stack resulting in the 
warning shown below. Most of the time it is harmless, but rarely it just 
causes either freeze or (I believe, this is related too) panic in 
tcp_sacktag_walk() (because sk_buff passed to this function is NULL). 
Unfortunately, I still do not have proper stacktrace from panic, but will try 
to capture it if possible.

Also, I have custom settings regarding TCP stack, shown below as well. ifb is 
used to shape traffic with tc.

Please note this regression was already reported as BZ [1] and as a letter to 
ML [2], but got neither attention nor resolution. It is reproducible for (not 
only) me on my home router since v4.11 till v4.13.1 incl.

Please advise on how to deal with it. I'll provide any additional info if 
necessary, also ready to test patches if any.

Thanks.
