mptcp: avoid sending RST when closing the initial subflow
When closing the first subflow, the MPTCP protocol unconditionally calls tcp_disconnect(), which in turn generates a reset if the subflow is established. That is unexpected and different from what MPTCP does with MPJ subflows, where resets are generated only on FASTCLOSE and other edge scenarios. We can't reuse for the first subflow the same code in place for MPJ subflows, as MPTCP clean them up completely via a tcp_close() call, while must keep the first subflow socket alive for later re-usage, due to implementation constraints. This patch adds a new helper __mptcp_subflow_disconnect() that encapsulates, a logic similar to tcp_close, issuing a reset only when the MPTCP_CF_FASTCLOSE flag is set, and performing a clean shutdown otherwise.
