af_unix: Don't set -ECONNRESET for consumed OOB skb.
Christian Brauner reported that even after MSG_OOB data is consumed,
calling close() on the receiver socket causes the peer's recv() to
return -ECONNRESET:
1. send() and recv() an OOB data.
>>> from socket import *
>>> s1, s2 = socketpair(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM)
>>> s1.send(b'x', MSG_OOB)
1
>>> s2.recv(1, MSG_OOB)
b'x'
2. close() for s2 sets ECONNRESET to s1->sk_err even though
s2 consumed the OOB data
>>> s2.close()
>>> s1.recv(10, MSG_DONTWAIT)
...
ConnectionResetError: [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer
Even after being consumed, the skb holding the OOB 1-byte data stays in
the recv queue to mark the OOB boundary and break recv() at that point.
This must be considered while close()ing a socket.
Let's skip the leading consumed OOB skb while checking the -ECONNRESET
condition in unix_release_sock().
Fixes: 314001f0 ("af_unix: Add OOB support")
