Subject: [PATCH net 1/6] mptcp: do not wait for bare sockets' timeout

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

If the peer closes all the existing subflows for a given
mptcp socket and later the application closes it, the current
implementation let it survive until the timewait timeout expires.

While the above is allowed by the protocol specification it
consumes resources for almost no reason and additionally
causes sporadic self-tests failures.

Let's move the mptcp socket to the TCP_CLOSE state when there are
no alive subflows at close time, so that the allocated resources
will be freed immediately.
