[PATCH RFC] tcp: diag: Also support for FIN_WAIT1 sockets for tcp_abort()

From: Leonard Crestez
Date: Sun Jul 03 2022 - 15:51:36 EST


Aborting tcp connections via ss -K doesn't work in TCP_FIN_WAIT1 state,
this happens because the SOCK_DEAD flag is set. Fix by ignoring that flag
for this special case.

I tested that this fixes the problem but not certain about correctness.

Support for TCP_TIME_WAIT was added recently but it doesn't fix
TCP_FIN_WAIT1.
