[PATCH v5 net-next] net: Remove redundant calls of sk_tx_queue_clear().

[PATCH v5 net-next] net: Remove redundant calls of sk_tx_queue_clear().

[Kuniyuki Iwashima]

The commit 41b14fb8724d ("net: Do not clear the sock TX queue in
sk_set_socket()") removes sk_tx_queue_clear() from sk_set_socket() and adds
it instead in sk_alloc() and sk_clone_lock() to fix an issue introduced in
the commit e022f0b4a03f ("net: Introduce sk_tx_queue_mapping"). On the
other hand, the original commit had already put sk_tx_queue_clear() in
sk_prot_alloc(): the callee of sk_alloc() and sk_clone_lock(). Thus
sk_tx_queue_clear() is called twice in each path.

If we remove sk_tx_queue_clear() in sk_alloc() and sk_clone_lock(), it
currently works well because (i) sk_tx_queue_mapping is defined between
sk_dontcopy_begin and sk_dontcopy_end, and (ii) sock_copy() called after
sk_prot_alloc() in sk_clone_lock() does not overwrite sk_tx_queue_mapping.
However, if we move sk_tx_queue_mapping out of the no copy area, it
introduces a bug unintentionally.

Therefore, this patch adds a compile-time check to take care of the order
of sock_copy() and sk_tx_queue_clear() and removes sk_tx_queue_clear() from
sk_prot_alloc() so that it does the only allocation and its callers
initialize fields.
