Subject: [PATCH] net: rds: acquire refcount on TCP sockets

syzbot is reporting use-after-free read in tcp_retransmit_timer() [1],
for TCP socket used by RDS is accessing sock_net() without acquiring a
refcount on net namespace. Since TCP's retransmission can happen after
a process which created net namespace terminated, we need to explicitly
acquire a refcount.

Reported-by: syzbot <syzbot+694120e1002c117747ed@syzkaller.appspotmail.com>
Fixes: 26abe14379f8e2fa ("net: Modify sk_alloc to not reference count the netns of kernel sockets.")
Fixes: 8a68173691f03661 ("net: sk_clone_lock() should only do get_net() if the parent is not a kernel socket")
