Just like with last_snd, we have to NULL 'first' on subflow close.

ack_hint isn't strictly required (its never dereferenced), but better to
clear this explicitly as well instead of making it an exception.

msk->first is dereferenced unconditionally at accept time, but
at that point the ssk is not on the conn_list yet -- this means
worker can't see it when iterating the conn_list.

 v2: add comment to clarify msk->first access in accept()
 is safe even if tcp connection has been closed already.

Thank you for this patch!

Just applied in our tree, after "mptcp: dispose initial struct socket 
when its subflow is closed" with my RvB tag.

- 15d29d726a6e: mptcp: reset 'first' and ack_hint on subflow close
- Results: b5622a37311b..45795e8f868e

Tests + export are in progress!

Cheers,
