[rds-devel] [PATCH v2 net 2/5] Revert "tcp: Clean up kernel listener's reqsk in inet_twsk_purge()"

This reverts commit 740ea3c4a0b2e326b23d7cdf05472a0e92aa39bc.

The change actually fixed a use-after-free of struct net by kernel
listener's reqsk in per-netns ehash.

However, the fix was incomplete, as the same issue exists for the
global ehash.

We should have fixed it on the RDS side without slowing down netns
dismantle for the normal TCP use case.

The following patches will fix the issue on the RDS side.

Fixes: 740ea3c4a0b2 ("tcp: Clean up kernel listener's reqsk in inet_twsk_purge()")
