[PATCH 6.12.y] landlock: Fix TCP handling of short AF_UNSPEC addresses

[Maximilian Heyne <mheyne@amazon.de>]

From: Matthieu Buffet <matthieu@buffet.re>

[ Upstream commit e4d82cbce2258f454634307fdabf33aa46b61ab0 ]

current_check_access_socket() treats AF_UNSPEC addresses as
AF_INET ones, and only later adds special case handling to
allow connect(AF_UNSPEC), and on IPv4 sockets
bind(AF_UNSPEC+INADDR_ANY).
This would be fine except AF_UNSPEC addresses can be as
short as a bare AF_UNSPEC sa_family_t field, and nothing
more. The AF_INET code path incorrectly enforces a length of
sizeof(struct sockaddr_in) instead.

Move AF_UNSPEC edge case handling up inside the switch-case,
before the address is (potentially incorrectly) treated as
AF_INET.

Backporting this because landlock/net_test deterministically fails as
the selftest from the patch series "Fix TCP short AF_UNSPEC handling"
(https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251027190726.626244-1-matthieu@buffet.re/)
has been backported to 6.12 but not this patch due to conflicts.
