Sagi Grimberg 88eaba8032 nvme-tcp: fix a possible UAF when failing to allocate an io queue
When we allocate a nvme-tcp queue, we set the data_ready callback before
we actually need to use it. This creates the potential that if a stray
controller sends us data on the socket before we connect, we can trigger
the io_work and start consuming the socket.

In this case reported: we failed to allocate one of the io queues, and
as we start releasing the queues that we already allocated, we get
a UAF [1] from the io_work which is running before it should really.

Fix this by setting the socket ops callbacks only before we start the
queue, so that we can't accidentally schedule the io_work in the
initialization phase before the queue started. While we are at it,
rename nvme_tcp_restore_sock_calls to pair with nvme_tcp_setup_sock_ops.

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.

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.
