Please add a Fixes tag and Cc stable.

And add 'net' after PATCH in the subject:

Mmh, I can understand it would help to reduce issues here, but I don't
think that's enough: in mptcp_pm_del_add_timer(), CPU1 can get the entry
from the list under the lock, then immediately after, the free can
happen on CPU2, while CPU1 is trying to access entry->add_timer outside
the lock, no? Something like this:

  CPU1              CPU2
  ====              ====
  entry = (...)
                    kfree(entry)
  entry->add_timer


What about keeping a reference to add_timer inside the lock, and calling
sk_stop_timer_sync() with this reference, instead of "entry->add_timer"?
I'm thinking about something like that to be applied *on top* of your
patch, WDYT?
