commit 48cec899e357cfb92d022a9c0df6bbe72a7f6951

    tcp: Add a stub for sk_defer_free_flush()

    When compiling the kernel with CONFIG_INET disabled, the
    sk_defer_free_flush() should be defined as a nop.

    This resolves the following compilation error:
      ld: net/core/sock.o: in function `sk_defer_free_flush':
      ./include/net/tcp.h:1378: undefined reference to `__sk_defer_free_flush'

    Fixes: 79074a72d335 ("net: Flush deferred skb free on socket destroy")
