Eric Dumazet 5977bc19ce tcp: remove empty skb from write queue in error cases
[ Upstream commit fdfc5c8594 ]

Vladimir Rutsky reported stuck TCP sessions after memory pressure
events. Edge Trigger epoll() user would never receive an EPOLLOUT
notification allowing them to retry a sendmsg().

Jason tested the case of sk_stream_alloc_skb() returning NULL,
but there are other paths that could lead both sendmsg() and sendpage()
to return -1 (EAGAIN), with an empty skb queued on the write queue.

This patch makes sure we remove this empty skb so that
Jason code can detect that the queue is empty, and
call sk->sk_write_space(sk) accordingly.

Fixes: ce5ec44099 ("tcp: ensure epoll edge trigger wakeup when write queue is empty")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
