tcp_rtx_queue_tail() (called by tcp_fragment()) can call
tcp_write_queue_prev() on the first packet in the queue, which will trigger
the BUG in tcp_write_queue_prev(), because there is no previous packet.
This happens when the retransmit queue is empty, for example in case of a
zero window.
Commit 8c3088f895a0 ("tcp: be more careful in tcp_fragment()") was not a
simple cherry-pick of the original one from master (b617158dc096)
because there is a specific TCP rtx queue only since v4.15. For more
details, please see the commit message of b617158dc096 ("tcp: be more
careful in tcp_fragment()").
The BUG() is hit due to the specific code added to versions older than
v4.15. The comment in skb_queue_prev() (include/linux/skbuff.h:1406),
just before the BUG_ON() somehow suggests to add a check before using
it, what Tim did.
In master, this code path causing the issue will not be taken because
the implementation of tcp_rtx_queue_tail() is different:
tcp_fragment() → tcp_rtx_queue_tail() → tcp_write_queue_prev() →
skb_queue_prev() → BUG_ON()
Fixes: 8c3088f895a0 ("tcp: be more careful in tcp_fragment()")
