[ Upstream commit 91e61dd7a0af660408e87372d8330ceb218be302 ]

In tls_init(), a write memory barrier is missing, and store-store
reordering may cause NULL dereference in tls_{setsockopt,getsockopt}.

// In tls_init()
// In tls_ctx_create()
ctx = kzalloc()
ctx->sk_proto = READ_ONCE(sk->sk_prot) -(1)

// In update_sk_prot()
WRITE_ONCE(sk->sk_prot, tls_prots)     -(2)

                                   // In sock_common_setsockopt()
                                   READ_ONCE(sk->sk_prot)->setsockopt()

                                   // In tls_{setsockopt,getsockopt}()
                                   ctx->sk_proto->setsockopt()    -(3)

In the above scenario, when (1) and (2) are reordered, (3) can observe
the NULL value of ctx->sk_proto, causing NULL dereference.

To fix it, we rely on rcu_assign_pointer() which implies the release
barrier semantic. By moving rcu_assign_pointer() after ctx->sk_proto is
initialized, we can ensure that ctx->sk_proto are visible when
changing sk->sk_prot.
