CVE-2023-53088

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mptcp: fix UaF in listener shutdown

As reported by Christoph after having refactored the passive
socket initialization, the mptcp listener shutdown path is prone
to an UaF issue.

The msk grace period can legitly expire in between the last
reference count dropped in mptcp_subflow_queue_clean() and
the later eventual access in inet_csk_listen_stop()

After the previous patch we don't need anymore special-casing
msk listener socket cleanup: the mptcp worker will process each
of the unaccepted msk sockets.

Just drop the now unnecessary code.

Please note this commit depends on the two parent ones:

  mptcp: refactor passive socket initialization
  mptcp: use the workqueue to destroy unaccepted sockets
