Calling accept on a TCP socket with a TLS ulp attached results
in two sockets that share the same ulp context.
The ulp context is freed while a socket is destroyed, so
after one of the sockets is released, the second second will
trigger a use after free when it tries to access the ulp context
attached to it.
We restrict the TLS ulp to sockets in ESTABLISHED state
to prevent the scenario above.

Fixes: 3c4d755 ('tls: kernel TLS support')

I'm sorry, I've noticed that I have a typo in my comment.

It should read:
/*The TLS ulp is currently supported only for TCP sockets
 * in ESTABLISHED state.
 * Supporting sockets in LISTEN state will require us
 * to modify the accept implementation to clone rather then
 * share the ulp context.
 */

Should I resubmit the patch?
