For linux-4.14.y:
  Without 3b4477d2dcf2, there would be a conflict when we apply a9eeb998c28d.

  And, without 3b4477d2dcf2, I think actually we should not apply:
  c9d3fe9da094 ("VSOCK: fix outdated sk_state value in hvs_release()"), 
  but c9d3fe9da094 was already applied into linux-4.14.y on Feb 25, 2018.

  I just checked 4.14.136-rc1 and found 3b4477d2dcf2 is queued. This is great! :-)

  So the only missing thing is: we need to cherry pick 
    a9eeb998c28d ("hv_sock: Add support for delayed close")
  onto 4.14.136-rc1.
