commit 5dd8025a49c268ab6b94d978532af3ad341132a7 upstream.
syzbot reported a soft lockup in mptcp_recvmsg() [0].
When receiving data with MSG_PEEK | MSG_WAITALL flags, the skb is not
removed from the sk_receive_queue. This causes sk_wait_data() to always
find available data and never perform actual waiting, leading to a soft
lockup.
Fix this by adding a 'last' parameter to track the last peeked skb.
This allows sk_wait_data() to make informed waiting decisions and prevent
infinite loops when MSG_PEEK is used.

[ Conflicts in protocol.c, because commit bc68b0efa1bf ("mptcp: move the
whole rx path under msk socket lock protection") and commit
d88b2127b242 ("mptcp: add eat_recv_skb helper") (with some
dependences) are not in this version. These conflicts were in the
context, and not related to this fix. ]
