From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>

commit f6909dc1c1f4452879278128012da6c76bc186a5 upstream.

The msk socket uses to different timeout to track close related
events and retransmissions. The existing helpers do not indicate
clearly which timer they actually touch, making the related code
quite confusing.

Change the existing helpers name to avoid such confusion. No
functional change intended.

This patch is linked to the next one ("mptcp: fix dangling connection
hang-up"). The two patches are supposed to be backported together.
