Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf, sockmap: Fix an infinite loop error when len is 0 in tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser() When the buffer length of the recvmsg system call is 0, we got the flollowing soft lockup problem: watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#3 stuck for 27s!

According to the Linux system call man page, 0 should be returned in this case. Therefore, in tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser(), if the length is 0, directly return. Also modify several other functions with the same problem.
