inet: reject unhashed sockets during established lookups

TCP established ehash lookups are lockless. The socket caches involved
use SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU, so memory can be reused before an RCU reader
that retained its old address has finished.

After a tuple match, __inet_lookup_established() and
__inet6_lookup_established() acquire a reference and repeat the tuple
check. They do not check whether the new object is hashed. If the
address is reused for a socket with the same tuple, the lookup can
acquire a reference to the new object and return it while its nulls node
is unhashed.

A PoC that drives reuse with a SYN cookie request socket reproduced the
crash. The new request socket is unhashed and has a NULL rsk_listener.
A lookup that had loaded the address of the old request socket acquired
the reference published by tcp_get_cookie_sock() and returned the new
object. tcp_v4_rcv() then read sk_state through the NULL listener.

The resulting crash was:

  Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt

After taking a reference, check whether the nulls node is unhashed in
both IPv4 and IPv6 established lookups. If it is unhashed or the tuple
no longer matches, drop the reference and restart the lookup.

Lookups racing with the TIME_WAIT hashdance, or with a request being
replaced by its child, now restart and find the new socket instead of
returning the old one.

Request sockets that were never inserted into ehash can have a nonzero
refcount, and a stale lookup can hold a transient reference. Therefore,
when SYN cookie, Fast Open, and request migration paths fail after
setting a nonzero refcount, release the references held by those paths
with reqsk_put() instead of freeing the request directly.
