Clear tp->packets_out when purging the write queue, otherwise tcp_rearm_rto() mistakenly assumes TCP write queue is not empty. This results in NULL pointer dereference. Also, remove the redundant `tp->packets_out = 0` from tcp_disconnect(), since tcp_disconnect() calls tcp_write_queue_purge().

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
