Subject: [PATCH net 3/6] mptcp: fix locking for in-kernel listener creation

From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@...hat.com>

For consistency, in mptcp_pm_nl_create_listen_socket(), we need to
call the __mptcp_nmpc_socket() under the msk socket lock.

Note that as a side effect, mptcp_subflow_create_socket() needs a
'nested' lockdep annotation, as it will acquire the subflow (kernel)
socket lock under the in-kernel listener msk socket lock.

The current lack of locking is almost harmless, because the relevant
socket is not exposed to the user space, but in future we will add
more complexity to the mentioned helper, let's play safe.

Fixes: 1729cf186d8a ("mptcp: create the listening socket for new port")
