On a reordering path (e.g. IPsec crypto offload + GRO) the TCP receive
queue can hold adjacent skbs whose sequence ranges overlap. The tls
fast-path reads the record header with skb_copy_bits() by byte offset,
which assumes skb ranges don't overlap.
When a record boundary lands within the last few bytes of an skb, the
5-byte header straddles into the overlapping next skb; the duplicate bytes
are read as the header, yielding a bogus length (-EMSGSIZE) or version
(-EINVAL) and aborting the connection.

tls_strp_check_queue_ok() already detects such overlaps and diverts to the
seq-addressed copy path, but it only ran after the header was parsed, and
it validated stm.offset + stm.full_len -- and full_len is still 0 for a new
record, so it could not cover the header bytes. Parameterize it by length
and also validate the header region (stm.offset + TLS_HEADER_SIZE) before
parsing.
