Subject: [PATCH net 3/4] mptcp: fix deadlock in __mptcp_push_pending()

From: Maxim Galaganov <max@...ernet.ru>

__mptcp_push_pending() may call mptcp_flush_join_list() with subflow
socket lock held. If such call hits mptcp_sockopt_sync_all() then
subsequently __mptcp_sockopt_sync() could try to lock the subflow
socket for itself, causing a deadlock.

 </TASK>

Fix the issue by using __mptcp_flush_join_list() instead of plain
mptcp_flush_join_list() inside __mptcp_push_pending(), as suggested by
Florian. The sockopt sync will be deferred to the workqueue.

Fixes: 1b3e7ede1365 ("mptcp: setsockopt: handle SO_KEEPALIVE and SO_PRIORITY")
