mptcp: do not wait for bare sockets' timeout
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.

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.
