[ Upstream commit c9d3fe9da094a9a7a3d3cd365b334b822e05f5e8 ]

Since commit 3b4477d2dcf2709d0be89e2a8dced3d0f4a017f2 ("VSOCK: use TCP state constants for sk_state") VSOCK has used TCP_* constants for sk_state.

Commit b4562ca7925a3bedada87a3dd072dd5bad043288 ("hv_sock: add locking in the open/close/release code paths") reintroduced the SS_DISCONNECTING constant.

This patch replaces the old SS_DISCONNECTING with the new TCP_CLOSING constant.
