net/tls: Fix race in TLS device down flow
Socket destruction flow and tls_device_down function sync against each other using tls_device_lock and the context refcount, to guarantee the device resources are freed via tls_dev_del() by the end of tls_device_down. In the following unfortunate flow, this won't happen: - refcount is decreased to zero in tls_device_sk_destruct. - tls_device_down starts, skips the context as refcount is zero, going all the way until it flushes the gc work, and returns without freeing the device resources. - only then, tls_device_queue_ctx_destruction is called, queues the gc work and frees the context's device resources. Solve it by decreasing the refcount in the socket's destruction flow under the tls_device_lock, for perfect synchronization. This does not slow down the common likely destructor flow, in which both the refcount is decreased and the spinlock is acquired, anyway.
