[PATCH] mptcp: pm: kernel: use RCU to free endpoint listeners

[Kyle Zeng <kylebot@openai.com>]

mptcp_pm_nl_create_listen_socket() starts the TCP listener directly
instead of going through mptcp_listen(). It consequently misses setting
SOCK_RCU_FREE on the parent MPTCP socket.

tcp_child_process() can invoke the listener's subflow_data_ready()
callback without holding the MPTCP parent lock or a reference to the
parent. An authenticated MP_JOIN racing with endpoint teardown can
therefore access the parent after its last reference has been dropped.
The ADD_ADDR error path can also close an already published listener.

Set SOCK_RCU_FREE before __inet_listen_sk() publishes the TCP listener,
matching mptcp_listen(). This protects the parent on every subsequent
close path, including a failed endpoint addition.
