tcp: initialize send sequence numbers before deferring TFO
TCP_FASTOPEN_CONNECT can return from connect() before tcp_connect_init()
when a cached cookie or cookieless Fast Open allows deferring the SYN.
At this point write_seq contains the initial sequence number, while
snd_una and snd_nxt have not been initialized to that sequence number.
Consequently, inet_diag and /proc/net/tcp{,6} report the initial
sequence number as the send queue length despite no SYN or payload being
queued.
Initialize snd_una and snd_nxt to write_seq before marking the
connection as deferred. Both sequence-based queue lengths then remain
zero until the first write starts the connection and runs
tcp_connect_init().
