tcp_child_process( .. child ...) currently calls sock_put(child).

Unfortunately @child (named @nsk in callers) can be used after
this point to send a RST packet.

To fix this UAF, I remove the sock_put() from tcp_child_process()
and let the callers handle this after it is safe.

Remove @rsk variable in tcp_v4_do_rcv() and change tcp_v6_do_rcv()
so that both functions look the same.

Fixes: cfb6eeb4c860 ("[TCP]: MD5 Signature Option (RFC2385) support.")
