[PATCH net,v6,1/2] net/smc: modify smc_sock structure

From: Jeongjun Park
Date: Tue Aug 20 2024 - 08:16:05 EST


Since inet_sk(sk)->pinet6 and smc_sk(sk)->clcsock practically
point to the same address, when smc_create_clcsk() stores the newly
created clcsock in smc_sk(sk)->clcsock, inet_sk(sk)->pinet6 is corrupted
into clcsock. This causes NULL pointer dereference and various other
memory corruptions.

To solve this, we need to modify the smc_sock structure.
