An empty TLS 1.3 data record delivers no payload, so it leaves
tls_sw_read_sock() in its loop without advancing the caller's read
descriptor. A peer that streams such records keeps the receive loop
running, and the socket lock held, for as long as they arrive.
Bound a run of such records, as net_rx_action() bounds a softirq
poll. The first record that delivers no bytes arms a deadline
TLS_RX_NODATA_NS ahead; any record that delivers bytes disarms it,
so a normal stream never trips it. Breaking out with nothing copied
returns zero, which a read_sock consumer reads as "no progress"
rather than EOF, so the connection stays up. Records left queued
draw no fresh sk_data_ready() of their own, so fire the socket's
current callback before returning.
Only tls_sw_read_sock() needs this bound. Its consumers drive the
receive loop from kernel context and hold the socket lock across
the whole call, so the deadline supplies the return boundary a
system call would otherwise provide. tls_sw_splice_read() and
tls_sw_recvmsg() return to userspace and drop the lock, so a flood
there costs the caller only its own scheduler time.

tls_sw_read_sock()")
