The MPTCP protocol access the listener subflow in a lockless manner in a couple of places (poll, diag). That works only if the msk itself leaves the listener status only after that the subflow itself has been closed/disconnected. Otherwise we risk deadlock in diag, as reported by Christoph. Address the issue ensuring that the first subflow (the listener one) is always disconnected before updating the msk socket status.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
