[13/18] dccp: fix oops on Reset after close

2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 720dc34bbbe9493c7bd48b2243058b4e447a929d upstream.

This fixes a bug in the order of dccp_rcv_state_process() that still permitted
reception even after closing the socket. A Reset after close thus causes a NULL
pointer dereference by not preventing operations on an already torn-down socket.

The fix is by testing the socket state first. Receiving a packet in Closed state
now also produces the required "No connection" Reset reply of RFC 4340, 8.3.1.
