mptcp: only reset subflow errors when propagated

commit dccf461 upstream.

Some subflow socket errors need to be reported to the MPTCP socket: the
initial subflow connect (MP_CAPABLE), and the ones from the fallback
sockets. The others are not propagated.

The issue is that sock_error() was used to retrieve the error, which was
also resetting the sk_err field. Because of that, when notifying the
userspace about subflow close events later on from the MPTCP worker, the
ssk->sk_err field was always 0.

Now, the error (sk_err) is only reset when propagating it to the msk.

Fixes: 15cc104 ("mptcp: deliver ssk errors to msk")
