vsock: Keep the binding until socket destruction
syzbot is correct (thanks), bisected commit introduced a regression.
sock_orphan(sk) is being called without taking into consideration that it
does `sk->sk_wq = NULL`. Later, if SO_LINGER is set, sk->sk_wq gets
dereferenced in virtio_transport_wait_close().
Repro, as shown by syzbot, is simply
from socket import *
lis = socket(AF_VSOCK, SOCK_STREAM)
lis.bind((1, 1234)) # VMADDR_CID_LOCAL
lis.listen()
s = socket(AF_VSOCK, SOCK_STREAM)
s.setsockopt(SOL_SOCKET, SO_LINGER, (1<<32) | 1)
s.connect(lis.getsockname())
s.close()
A way of fixing this is to put sock_orphan(sk) back where it was before the
breaking patch and instead explicitly flip just the SOCK_DEAD bit, i.e.
diff --git a/net/vmw_vsock/af_vsock.c b/net/vmw_vsock/af_vsock.c

I'm not sure this is the most elegant code (sock_orphan(sk) sets SOCK_DEAD
on a socket that is already SOCK_DEAD), but here it goes:

One more note: man socket(7) says lingering also happens on shutdown().
Should vsock follow that?
