After the blamed commit, IPv4 SYN packets handled
by a dual stack IPv6 socket are dropped, even if
perfectly valid.
$ nstat | grep MD5
TcpExtTCPMD5Failure 5 0.0
For a dual stack listener, an incoming IPv4 SYN packet
would call tcp_inbound_md5_hash() with @family == AF_INET,
while tp->af_specific is pointing to tcp_sock_ipv6_specific.
Only later when an IPv4-mapped child is created, tp->af_specific
is changed to tcp_sock_ipv6_mapped_specific.
Fixes: 7bbb765b73 ("net/tcp: Merge TCP-MD5 inbound callbacks")

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.
