 * * Main purpose of TIME-WAIT state is to close connection gracefully,
 *   when one of ends sits in LAST-ACK or CLOSING retransmitting FIN
 *   (and, probably, tail of data) and one or more our ACKs are lost.
 * * What is TIME-WAIT timeout? It is associated with maximal packet
 *   lifetime in the internet, which results in wrong conclusion, that
 *   it is set to catch "old duplicate segments" wandering out of their path.
 *   It is not quite correct. This timeout is calculated so that it exceeds
 *   maximal retransmission timeout enough to allow to lose one (or more)
 *   segments sent by peer and our ACKs. This time may be calculated from RTO.
 * * When TIME-WAIT socket receives RST, it means that another end
 *   finally closed and we are allowed to kill TIME-WAIT too.
 * * Second purpose of TIME-WAIT is catching old duplicate segments.
 *   Well, certainly it is pure paranoia, but if we load TIME-WAIT
 *   with this semantics, we MUST NOT kill TIME-WAIT state with RSTs.
 * * If we invented some more clever way to catch duplicates
 *   (f.e. based on PAWS), we could truncate TIME-WAIT to several RTOs.
 *
 * The algorithm below is based on FORMAL INTERPRETATION of RFCs.
 * When you compare it to RFCs, please, read section SEGMENT ARRIVES
 * from the very beginning.
 *
 * NOTE. With recycling (and later with fin-wait-2) TW bucket
 * is _not_ stateless. It means, that strictly speaking we must
 * spinlock it. I do not want! Well, probability of misbehaviour
 * is ridiculously low and, seems, we could use some mb() tricks
 * to avoid misread sequence numbers, states etc.  --ANK

	   for state SYN-RECEIVED of RFC793.
	   It is broken, however, it does not work only
	   when SYNs are crossed.

	   You would think that SYN crossing is impossible here, since
	   we should have a SYN_SENT socket (from connect()) on our end,
	   but this is not true if the crossed SYNs were sent to both
	   ends by a malicious third party.  We must defend against this,
	   and to do that we first verify the ACK (as per RFC793, page
	   36) and reset if it is invalid.  Is this a true full defense?
	   To convince ourselves, let us consider a way in which the ACK
	   test can still pass in this 'malicious crossed SYNs' case.
	   Malicious sender sends identical SYNs (and thus identical sequence
	   numbers) to both A and B:

		A: gets SYN, seq=7
		B: gets SYN, seq=7

	   By our good fortune, both A and B select the same initial
	   send sequence number of seven :-)

		A: sends SYN|ACK, seq=7, ack_seq=8
		B: sends SYN|ACK, seq=7, ack_seq=8

	   So we are now A eating this SYN|ACK, ACK test passes.  So
	   does sequence test, SYN is truncated, and thus we consider
	   it a bare ACK.

	   If icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept, we silently drop this
	   bare ACK.  Otherwise, we create an established connection.  Both
	   ends (listening sockets) accept the new incoming connection and try
	   to talk to each other. 8-)

	   Note: This case is both harmless, and rare.  Possibility is about the
	   same as us discovering intelligent life on another plant tomorrow.

	   But generally, we should (RFC lies!) to accept ACK
	   from SYNACK both here and in tcp_rcv_state_process().
