Probably, I don't understand what problem is this patch trying to
solve.

I thought that the problem is about leaking opened file
descriptors. If so, the core closes a connection when a datapath is
dead. Applications might record or not, doesn't matter. After the core
closes the connection, if an application keeps the datapath and tries
to write to the connection, it gets an error.
