Subject: [PATCH 4.14 58/59] tcp: Dont dequeue SYN/FIN-segments from write-queue

If a SYN/FIN-segment is on the write-queue, skb->len is 0, but the
segment actually has been transmitted. end_seq and seq of the tcp_skb_cb
in that case will indicate this difference.

We should not remove such segments from the write-queue as we might be
in SYN_SENT-state and a retransmission-timer is running. When that one
fires, packets_out will be 1, but the write-queue would be empty,
resulting in:

Followed by a panic.

So, before removing an skb with skb->len == 0, let's make sure that the
skb is really empty by checking the end_seq and seq.

This patch needs to be backported only to 4.14 and older (among those
that applied the backport of fdfc5c8594c2).

Fixes: fdfc5c8594c2 ("tcp: remove empty skb from write queue in error cases")
