MFC r338053:

Description

MFC r338053:

Don't expose the uptime via the TCP timestamps.

The TCP client side or the TCP server side when not using SYN-cookies
used the uptime as the TCP timestamp value. This patch uses in all
cases an offset, which is the result of a keyed hash function taking
the source and destination addresses and port numbers into account.
The keyed hash function is the same a used for the initial TSN.

The use of
VNET_DEFINE_STATIC(u_char, ts_offset_secret[32]);
had to be replaced by
VNET_DEFINE(u_char, ts_offset_secret[32]);

MFC r348290:

When an ACK segment as the third message of the three way handshake is
received and support for time stamps was negotiated in the SYN/SYNACK
exchange, perform the PAWS check and only expand the syn cache entry if
the check is passed.
Without this check, endpoints may get stuck on the incomplete queue.
