tcp: preserve const qualifier in tcp_sk()
We can change tcp_sk() to propagate its argument const qualifier, thanks to container_of_const(). We have two places where a const sock pointer has to be upgraded to a write one. We have been using const qualifier for lockless listeners to clearly identify points where writes could happen. Add tcp_sk_rw() helper to better document these. tcp_inbound_md5_hash(), __tcp_grow_window(), tcp_reset_check() and tcp_rack_reo_wnd() get an additional const qualififer for their @tp local variables. smc_check_reset_syn_req() also needs a similar change.
