Subject: [PATCH net] unix: Fix race in SOCK_SEQPACKET's unix_dgram_sendmsg()

There is a race resulting in alive SOCK_SEQPACKET socket
may change its state from TCP_ESTABLISHED to TCP_CLOSE:

unix_release_sock(peer)                  unix_dgram_sendmsg(sk)
  sock_orphan(peer)
    sock_set_flag(peer, SOCK_DEAD)
                                           sock_alloc_send_pskb()
                                             if !(sk->sk_shutdown & SEND_SHUTDOWN)
                                               OK
                                           if sock_flag(peer, SOCK_DEAD)
                                             sk->sk_state = TCP_CLOSE
  sk->sk_shutdown = SHUTDOWN_MASK


After that socket sk remains almost normal: it is able to connect, listen, accept
and recvmsg, while it can't sendmsg.

Since this is the only possibility for alive SOCK_SEQPACKET to change
the state in such way, we should better fix this strange and potentially
danger corner case.

Also, move TCP_CLOSE assignment for SOCK_DGRAM sockets under state lock.
