Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] selftests/net: Argument value mismatch when calling verify_counters()

From: Mohammad Nassiri <mnassiri@...na.com>

The end_server() function only operates in the server thread
and always takes an accept socket instead of a listen socket as
its input argument. To align with this, invert the boolean values
used when calling verify_counters() within the end_server() function.

As a result of this typo, the test didn't correctly check for
the non-symmetrical scenario, where i.e. peer-A uses a key <100:200>
to send data, but peer-B uses another key <105:205> to send its data.
So, in simple words, different keys for TX and RX.
