There's a new TCP regression in latest -git that triggers in 
randconfig testing.

With the attached config i'm getting tons of these messages:

[   32.751209] TCP: too many of orphaned sockets                                                   
[   37.198307] TCP: too many of orphaned sockets                                                   
[   42.464404] TCP: too many of orphaned sockets                                                   
[   48.920392] TCP: too many of orphaned sockets                                                   
[   56.370026] TCP: too many of orphaned sockets                                                   
[   64.605937] TCP: too many of orphaned sockets                     

and it's not possible to ssh into the testbox, the TCP 
connection hangs.

Before i put more effort into debugging this, is this bug 
already known/fixed?

NOTE: the .config is randconfig generated so it might have a few 
weird combinations of config options. One such thing i noticed 
is !CONFIG_BUG, this produces at least one of the following 
build warnings in the networking code:

net/core/ethtool.c:211:1: warning: control reaches end of non-void function [-Wreturn-type]
net/core/dev.c:1892:33: warning: unused variable ‘null_features’ [-Wunused-variable]
net/packet/af_packet.c:1878:30: warning: ‘hdrlen’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c:2456:17: warning: ‘xfrm_dst_ops’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c:1351:7: warning: ‘dst_ops’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c:1333:18: note: ‘dst_ops’ was declared here
net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c:1351:7: warning: ‘dst_ops’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c:1333:18: note: ‘dst_ops’ was declared here

Note#2, the message should probably be fixed as well:

 -   TCP: too many of orphaned sockets                     
 +   TCP: too many orphaned sockets                     

Thanks,

	Ingo
