When an sk_msg scatterlist ring wraps (sg.end < sg.start),
tls_push_record() chains the tail portion of the ring to the head
using sg_chain(). An extra entry in the sg array is reserved for
this:

  struct sk_msg_sg {
        [...]
        /* The extra two elements:
         * 1) used for chaining the front and sections when the list becomes
         *    partitioned (e.g. end < start). The crypto APIs require the
         *    chaining;
         * 2) to chain tailer SG entries after the message.
         */
        struct scatterlist              data[MAX_MSG_FRAGS + 2];

The current code uses MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1 as the ring size:

    sg_chain(&msg_pl->sg.data[msg_pl->sg.start],
             MAX_SKB_FRAGS - msg_pl->sg.start + 1,
             msg_pl->sg.data);

This places the chain pointer at

  sg_chain(data[start], (MAX_SKB_FRAGS - msg_start + 1) .. =
  &data[start] + (MAX_SKB_FRAGS - msg_start + 1) - 1 =
  data[start + (MAX_SKB_FRAGS - start + 1) - 1] =
  data[MAX_SKB_FRAGS]

instead of the true last entry. This is likely due to a "race" of
the commit under Fixes landing close to
commit 031097d9e079 ("bpf: sk_msg, zap ingress queue on psock down")

Convert to ARRAY_SIZE and drop the data[start] / - start (as suggested
by Sabrina).
