Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] tcp: fix FIN_WAIT2 timer expression in /proc/net/tcp

When tcp_fin_timeout is greater than 60 and a socket is half-closed,
/proc/net/tcp shows a FIN_WAIT2 keepalive timer. This is confusing
because keepalive probes will never be sent in this case.
Keepalive probes will really be sent with a FIN_WAIT2 keepalive timer
shown when a socket is not closed but shutdown and SO_KEEPALIVE is set.

Even without this change, a keepalive timer for an orphaned FIN_WAIT2
socket will eventually turn to a timewait timer, and by default,
or when tcp_fin_timeout is 60, there will be no keepalive timer for
orphaned FIN_WAIT2 sockets. Therefore, this change will hardly affect
a bad influence to userspace.

This patch changes the expression to show only timewait timer for
orphaned FIN_WAIT2 sockets.
