inet_diag: fix access to tcp cc information
Two different problems are fixed here :
1) inet_sk_diag_fill() might be called without socket lock held.
icsk->icsk_ca_ops can change under us and module be unloaded.
-> Access to freed memory.
Fix this using rcu_read_lock() to prevent module unload.
2) Some TCP Congestion Control modules provide information
but again this is not safe against icsk->icsk_ca_ops
change and nla_put() errors were ignored. Some sockets
could not get the additional info if skb was almost full.
Fix this by returning a status from get_info() handlers and
using rcu protection as well.
