tcp: use WRITE_ONCE() for tsoffset in tcp_v6_connect()

Browse source

Commit dd23c9f1e8 ("tcp: annotate data-races around tp->tsoffset")
updated do_tcp_getsockopt() to read tp->tsoffset with READ_ONCE()
for TCP_TIMESTAMP because another CPU may change it concurrently.

tcp_v6_connect() still stores tp->tsoffset with a plain write. That
store runs under lock_sock() via inet_stream_connect(), but the socket
lock does not serialize a concurrent getsockopt(TCP_TIMESTAMP) from
another task sharing the socket.

Use WRITE_ONCE() for the tcp_v6_connect() store so the connect-time
writer matches the lockless TCP_TIMESTAMP reader. This also makes the
IPv6 path consistent with tcp_v4_connect().
