Subject: [PATCH v1 net] tcp: Fix SYN option room calculation for TCP-AO.

When building SYN packet in tcp_syn_options(), MSS, TS, WS, and
SACKPERM are used without checking the remaining bytes in the
options area.

To keep that logic as is, we limit the TCP-AO MAC length in
tcp_ao_parse_crypto().  Currently, the limit is calculated as below.

  MAX_TCP_OPTION_SPACE - TCPOLEN_TSTAMP_ALIGNED
                       - TCPOLEN_WSCALE_ALIGNED
                       - TCPOLEN_SACKPERM_ALIGNED

This looks confusing as (1) we pack SACKPERM into the leading
2-bytes of the aligned 12-bytes of TS and (2) TCPOLEN_MSS_ALIGNED
is not used.  Fortunately, the calculated limit is not wrong as
TCPOLEN_SACKPERM_ALIGNED and TCPOLEN_MSS_ALIGNED are the same value.

However, we should use the proper constant in the formula.

  MAX_TCP_OPTION_SPACE - TCPOLEN_MSS_ALIGNED
                       - TCPOLEN_TSTAMP_ALIGNED
                       - TCPOLEN_WSCALE_ALIGNED
