[PATCH net 4/4] mptcp: fix disconnect vs accept race

From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@xxxxxxxxxx>

Despite commit 0ad529d9fd2b ("mptcp: fix possible divide by zero in
recvmsg()"), the mptcp protocol is still prone to a race between
disconnect() (or shutdown) and accept.

The root cause is that the mentioned commit checks the msk-level
flag, but mptcp_stream_accept() does acquire the msk-level lock,
as it can rely directly on the first subflow lock.

As reported by Christoph than can lead to a race where an msk
socket is accepted after that mptcp_subflow_queue_clean() releases
the listener socket lock and just before it takes destructive
actions leading to the following splat:

Address the issue by temporary removing the pending request socket
from the accept queue, so that racing accept() can't touch them.

After depleting the msk - the ssk still exists, as plain TCP sockets,
re-insert them into the accept queue, so that later inet_csk_listen_stop()
will complete the tcp socket disposal.
