inet: fully convert sk->sk_rx_dst to RCU rules
syzbot reported various issues around early demux, one being included in this changelog [1]
sk->sk_rx_dst is using RCU protection without clearly documenting it.
And following sequences in tcp_v4_do_rcv()/tcp_v6_do_rcv() are not following standard RCU rules.
[a] dst_release(dst); [b] sk->sk_rx_dst = NULL;
They look wrong because a delete operation of RCU protected pointer is supposed to clear the pointer before the call_rcu()/synchronize_rcu() guarding actual memory freeing.
In some cases indeed, dst could be freed before [b] is done.
We could cheat by clearing sk_rx_dst before calling dst_release(), but this seems the right time to stick to standard RCU annotations and debugging facilities.
