commit 5d13349472ac8abcbcb94407969aa0fdc2e1f1be upstream.
sk_reset_timer() was called twice in mptcp_pm_alloc_anno_list.
Simplify the code by using a 'goto' statement to eliminate the
duplication.
Note that this is not a fix, but it will help backporting the following
patch. The same "Fixes" tag has been added for this reason.
Fixes: 93f323b9cccc ("mptcp: add a new sysctl add_addr_timeout")

commit f5ce0714623cffd00bf2a83e890d09c609b7f50a upstream.
When add_addr_timeout was set to 0, this caused the ADD_ADDR to be
retransmitted immediately, which looks like a buggy behaviour. Instead,
interpret 0 as "no retransmissions needed".
The documentation is updated to explicitly state that setting the timeout
to 0 disables retransmission.
