tcp: ipv6: do not read ireq->pktopts from tcp_v6_send_synack()

When IPV6_FL_F_REFLECT is set on a listener, or the
net.ipv6.flowlabel_reflect sysctl has FLOWLABEL_REFLECT_ESTABLISHED,
tcp_v6_send_synack() reflects the flowlabel of the SYN packet,
reading it from the skb stored in ireq->pktopts.

Since commit 079096f103 ("tcp/dccp: install syn_recv requests
into ehash table"), request sockets are processed without holding
the listener lock. A cpu can then process a retransmitted SYN for a
request socket, and send a SYNACK from tcp_check_req(), while another
cpu receives the ACK completing the 3WHS. tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock()
consumes ireq->pktopts when it wins the hashdance, and the first cpu
reads a freed skb:

Request socket migration has the same issue: reqsk_migrate_reset()
transfers ireq->pktopts to the clone, which can be freed while
another cpu holding a reference on the old request socket is still
sending a SYNACK.

The SYNACK timer itself is not an issue, because
inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop() calls timer_delete_sync().

Save the flowlabel of the SYN in the request socket instead, so that
tcp_v6_send_synack() no longer needs ireq->pktopts.

As a side effect, the flowlabel is also reflected for SYN packets
reusing a TIME_WAIT socket, as ireq->pktopts is not set in this case.

Fixes: e994b2f0fb ("tcp: do not lock listener to process SYN packets")
Fixes: 079096f103 ("tcp/dccp: install syn_recv requests into ehash table")
Fixes: c905dee622 ("tcp: Migrate TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV requests at retransmitting SYN+ACKs.")
