Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tipc: restrict socket queue dumps in enqueue tracepoints tipc_sk_enqueue() runs with sk->sk_lock.slock held while the socket is owned by user context. The spinlock protects the backlog queue in this path, but it does not serialize against the socket owner consuming or purging sk_receive_queue.

Restrict these dumps to TIPC_DUMP_SK_BKLGQ, which matches the queue protected by the held spinlock. Keep the change limited to the enqueue path, where the unsafe queue dump is reachable while the socket is owned by user context.
