Its good practice to quote the relevant parts of the splat here.

Could you elaborate how this fixes a UAF bug?

AFAIU do_tls_setsockopt_conf uses ctx-> as scratch space, but this means
that getsockopt can see partial states.

If so, can the setsockopt part be changed so that reads only see
consistent states?
