Varun Prakash ce7723e9cd nvme-tcp: fix possible req->offset corruption 
With commit db5ad6b7f8 ("nvme-tcp: try to send request in queue_rq
context") r2t and response PDU can get processed while send function
is executing.

Current data digest send code uses req->offset after kernel_sendmsg(),
this creates a race condition where req->offset gets reset before it
is used in send function.

This can happen in two cases -
1. Target sends r2t PDU which resets req->offset.
2. Target send response PDU which completes the req and then req is
   used for a new command, nvme_tcp_setup_cmd_pdu() resets req->offset.

Fix this by storing req->offset in a local variable and using
this local variable after kernel_sendmsg().

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.
