[ Upstream commit 584f3742890e966d2f0a1f3c418c9ead70b2d99e ]
Add sock_init_data_uid() to explicitly initialize the socket uid.
To initialise the socket uid, sock_init_data() assumes a the struct
socket* sock is always embedded in a struct socket_alloc, used to
access the corresponding inode uid. This may not be true.
Examples are sockets created in tun_chr_open() and tap_open().
Fixes: 86741ec25462 ("net: core: Add a UID field to struct sock.")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
