Martin KaFai Lau 061ff04071 bpf: tcp: Stop bpf_setsockopt(TCP_CONGESTION) in init ops to recur itself
When a bad bpf prog '.init' calls
bpf_setsockopt(TCP_CONGESTION, "itself"), it will trigger this loop:

.init => bpf_setsockopt(tcp_cc) => .init => bpf_setsockopt(tcp_cc) ...
... => .init => bpf_setsockopt(tcp_cc).

It was prevented by the prog->active counter before but the prog->active
detection cannot be used in struct_ops as explained in the earlier
patch of the set.

In this patch, the second bpf_setsockopt(tcp_cc) is not allowed
in order to break the loop.  This is done by using a bit of
an existing 1 byte hole in tcp_sock to check if there is
on-going bpf_setsockopt(TCP_CONGESTION) in this tcp_sock.

Note that this essentially limits only the first '.init' can
call bpf_setsockopt(TCP_CONGESTION) to pick a fallback cc (eg. peer
does not support ECN) and the second '.init' cannot fallback to
another cc.  This applies even the second
bpf_setsockopt(TCP_CONGESTION) will not cause a loop.
