Research direction
Start with the three linked TODOs in kernel-src/io/net/tcp.c, at lines 945, 1044, and 1070, and read the surrounding TCP state handling. Determine which early connection states need to receive data and how the existing code handles packets in those states. Done means the TODOs are addressed and data reception works in the intended early states.
