[PATCH 3.14 15/79] tcp: fix tcp fin memory accounting

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2015-03-24 15:50:44
Also in: lkml

3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Josh Hunt <redacted>

[ Upstream commit d22e1537181188e5dc8cbc51451832625035bdc2 ]

tcp_send_fin() does not account for the memory it allocates properly, so
sk_forward_alloc can be negative in cases where we've sent a FIN:

ss example output (ss -amn | grep -B1 f4294):
tcp    FIN-WAIT-1 0      1            192.168.0.1:45520         192.0.2.1:8080
	skmem:(r0,rb87380,t0,tb87380,f4294966016,w1280,o0,bl0)
