[PATCH net v2 06/15] mptcp: prevent race between disconnect() and rtx
From: Matthieu Baerts (NGI0)
Date: Tue Sep 08 2026 - 11:09:02 EST
From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@xxxxxxxxxx>
Sashiko noted that the two event can race, leading to inconsistent
status. Prevent the race using the synchronous timer stop operation.
Fixes: b29fcfb54cd7 ("mptcp: full disconnect implementation")
