When an ADD_ADDR needs to be sent, it could be prepared if there is
enough remaining space and even if the packet is not a pure ACK. But it
would be dropped soon after.
Indeed, in mptcp_pm_add_addr_signal(), there is enough space to fit a
DSS of 20 octets and an ADD_ADDR echo containing an IPv4 address on 8
octets for example. In this case, the packet would be prepared, the
MPTCP_ADD_ADDR_ECHO bit would be removed from pm->addr_signal, but the
option would be silently dropped in mptcp_established_options_add_addr()
not to override DSS info in the union from 'struct mptcp_out_options',
and also because mptcp_write_options() will enforce mutually exclusion
with DSS.
Instead, don't even try to send an ADD_ADDR if it is not a pure ACK.
Retry for each new packet until a pure-ACK is emitted. That's fine to do
that, because each time an ADD_ADDR (echo) is scheduled, a pure ACK is
queued.
This also simplifies the code, and the skb checks can be done earlier,
before the lock.
Note: also, since commit 6d0060f600 ("mptcp: Write MPTCP DSS headers
to outgoing data packets"), opts->ahmac would not have been set to 0
when other suboptions were not dropped, and when sending an ADD_ADDR
echo. That would have resulted in sending an ADD_ADDR using garbage
info, where there was not enough space, instead of an echo one without
the ADD_ADDR HMAC.

The userspace PM increments extra_subflows after __mptcp_subflow_connect()
succeeds, but __mptcp_subflow_connect() calls mptcp_pm_close_subflow()
on failure to roll back the pre-increment done by the kernel PM's fill_*()
helpers. Because the userspace PM hasn't incremented yet at that point,
this decrement is spurious and causes extra_subflows to underflow.
Fix it by aligning the userspace PM with the kernel PM: increment
extra_subflows before calling __mptcp_subflow_connect(), so the existing
error path in subflow.c correctly rolls it back on failure. Also simplify
the error handling by taking pm.lock only when needed for cleanup.

In MPTCP connection, the `window` field in the TCP header refers to the
MPTCP-level rcv_nxt and it's right edge should not move backward. Such
constraint is enforced at DSS option generation time.
At the same time, the TCP stack ensures independently that the TCP-level
rcv wnd right's edge does not move backward. That in turn causes artificial
inflating of the MPTCP rcv window when the incoming data is acked at the
TCP level and is OoO in the MPTCP sequence space (or lands in the backlog).
As a consequence, the incoming traffic can exceed the receiver rcvbuf size
even when the sender is not misbehaving.
Prevent such scenario forcibly allowing the TCP subflow to shrink the
TCP-level rcv wnd regardless of the current netns setting.

Add __mptcp_subflow_set_rcvbuf() helper to write the subflow sk_rcvbuf,
but also to call the recently added tcp_set_rcvbuf() helper to update
window_clamp. This is needed because the window clap is updated when
scaling_ratio changes, in tcp_measure_rcv_mss(). Until scaling_ratio
changes, the subflow is stuck with the old window clamp which may be
based on a small initial buffer.
Use this new helper in both mptcp_sol_socket_sync_intval() (setsockopt
path) and sync_socket_options() (new subflow creation path).
Note that this patch depends on commit b025461303 ("tcp: update
window_clamp when SO_RCVBUF is set"): it fixes the issue on TCP side,
but the same fix is needed on MPTCP side as well.

If the MPTCP socket fallback to TCP before the MP handshake completion,
the IASN remain 0, and the rcv_wnd_sent field is not explicitly
initialized, just incremented over time with the data transfer.
At disconnect time such value is not cleared. If the next connection falls
back to TCP before the MP handshake completion, the data transfer will
keep incrementing the receive window end sequence starting from the last
value used in the previous connection: the announced window will be
unrelated from the actual receiver buffer size and likely too big.
Address the issue zeroing the field at disconnect time.

When TCP option space is insufficient (e.g., when sending ADD_ADDR with an
IPv6 address and port while tcp_timestamps is enabled), the original code
jumped to out_unlock without clearing the addr_signal flag. This caused
mptcp_pm_add_timer to keep rescheduling indefinitely, not sending ADD_ADDR,
preventing subsequent addresses in the endpoint list from being announced.
Handle this case by clearing the ADD_ADDR signal and skipping the matching
ADD_ADDR retransmission entry. The skip path cancels the matching timer
(with id check) and advances PM state progression, preserving forward
progress to subsequent PM work.
This cancellation is inherently best-effort. A concurrent add_timer
callback may already be running and may acquire pm.lock before the
cancel path updates entry state. In that case, one final ADD_ADDR
transmit attempt can still be executed.
Once the cancel path sets entry->retrans_times to ADD_ADDR_RETRANS_MAX,
the callback-side retrans_times check suppresses further ADD_ADDR
retransmissions.
Note that when an ADD_ADDR is being prepared, a pure-ACK is queued. On
the output side, it means that it is fine to skip non-pure-ACK packets,
when drop_other_suboptions is set: a pure-ACK will be processed soon
after.

When a packet arrives with map_seq < ack_seq < end_seq, the beginning
of the packet has already been acknowledged but the end contains new
data. Currently the entire packet is dropped as "old data," forcing
the sender to retransmit.
Instead, skip the already-acked bytes by adjusting the skb offset and
enqueue only the new portion. Update bytes_received and ack_seq to
reflect the new data consumed.
A previous attempt at this fix has been sent by Paolo Abeni [1], but had
issues [2]: it also added a zero-window check and changed rcv_wnd_sent
initialization, which caused test regressions. This version addresses
only the partial packet handling without modifying receive window
accounting.

When an ADD_ADDR needs to be retransmitted and another one has already
been prepared -- e.g. multiple ADD_ADDRs have been sent in a row and
need to be retransmitted later -- this additional retransmission will
need to wait.
In this case, the timer was reset to TCP_RTO_MAX / 8, which is ~15
seconds. This delay is unnecessary long: it should just be rescheduled
at the next opportunity, e.g. after the retransmission timeout.
Without this modification, some issues can be seen from time to time in
the selftests when multiple ADD_ADDRs are sent, and the host takes time
to process them, e.g. the "signal addresses, ADD_ADDR timeout" MPTCP
Join selftest, especially with a debug kernel config.
Note that on older kernels, 'timeout' is not available. It should be
enough to replace it by one second (HZ).

When an ADD_ADDR is retransmitted, the sk is held in sk_reset_timer(),
and released at the end.
If at that moment, it was the last reference being held, the sk would
not be freed. sock_put() should then be called instead of __sock_put().
But that's not enough: if it is the last reference, sock_put() will call
sk_free(), which will end up calling sk_stop_timer_sync() on the same
timer, and waiting indefinitely to finish. So it is needed to mark that
the timer is done at the end of the timer handler when it has not been
rescheduled, not to call sk_stop_timer_sync() on "itself".

Some (unlikely) checks were returning directly instead of calling
sock_put() to decrease the refcount. Jump to a new 'exit' label to call
__sock_put() (which will become sock_put() in the next commit) to fix
this potential leak.
While at it, drop the '!msk' check which cannot happen because it is
never reset, and explicitly mark the remaining one as "unlikely".

When adding the ADD_ADDR to the list, the address including the IP, port
and ID are copied. On the other hand, when the endpoint corresponds to
the one from the initial subflow, the ID is set to 0, as specified by

The issue is that the ID was reset after having copied the ID in the
