Subject: tcp: tcp_make_synack() should use sock_wmalloc
From: Phil Oester <kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit eb8895debe1baba41fcb62c78a16f0c63c21662a ]
In commit 90ba9b19 (tcp: tcp_make_synack() can use alloc_skb()), Eric changed
the call to sock_wmalloc in tcp_make_synack to alloc_skb. In doing so,
the netfilter owner match lost its ability to block the SYNACK packet on
outbound listening sockets. Revert the change, restoring the owner match
functionality.
This closes netfilter bugzilla #847.
