The documentation of the socket_connect() LSM hook states that it
controls connecting a socket to a remote address. It has not been the
case since the addition of TCP Fast Open (RFC 7413) support, which allows
opening a TCP connection (thus, setting a socket's destination address)
via the MSG_FASTOPEN flag passed to sendto()/sendmsg()/sendmmsg(). The
problem then got duplicated into MPTCP.
Landlock did not take it into account when its TCP support was added,
leaving a bypass of TCP connect policy.
Ideally a call to the LSM hook would be added in the fastopen code path,
in order to fix this generically. But connect() hooks are designed to run
with the socket locked, unlike sendmsg() hooks.
