mptcp: get rid of msk->subflow

Browse source

Such field is now unused just as a flag to control the first subflow
deletion at close() time. Introduce a new bit flag for that and finally
drop the mentioned field.

As an intended side effect, now the first subflow sock is not freed
before close() even for passive sockets. The msk has no open/active
subflows if the first one is closed and the subflow list is singular,
update accordingly the state check in mptcp_stream_accept().

Among other benefits, the subflow removal, reduces the amount of memory
used on the client side for each mptcp connection, allows passive sockets
to go through successful accept()/disconnect()/connect() and makes return
error code consistent for failing both passive and active sockets.
