[ Upstream commitd37fe4255a] tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock() calls ip6_dst_store() before inet_sk(newsk)->pinet6 has been set up. This means ip6_dst_store() writes over the parent (listener) np->dst_cookie. This is racy because multiple threads could share the same parent and their final np->dst_cookie could be wrong. Move ip6_dst_store() call after inet_sk(newsk)->pinet6 has been changed and after the copy of parent ipv6_pinfo.

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.
