mainlining shenanigans
980d69276f
When an application connects to the TIPC topology server and subscribes to some services, a new connection is created along with some objects - 'tipc_subscription' to store related data correspondingly... However, there is one omission in the connection handling that when the connection or application is orderly shutdown (e.g. via SIGQUIT, etc.), the connection is not closed in kernel, the 'tipc_subscription' objects are not freed too. This results in: - The maximum number of subscriptions (65535) will be reached soon, new subscriptions will be rejected; - TIPC module cannot be removed (unless the objects are somehow forced to release first); The commit fixes the issue by closing the connection if the 'recvmsg()' returns '0' i.e. when the peer is shutdown gracefully. It also includes the other unexpected cases.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
