David S. Miller 0384dd9d2d Merge branch 'mptcp-refactor'
Mat Martineau says:

====================
mptcp: Refactor ADD_ADDR/RM_ADDR handling

This patch set changes the way MPTCP ADD_ADDR and RM_ADDR options are
handled to improve the reliability of sending and updating address
advertisements. The information used to populate outgoing advertisement
option headers is now stored separately to avoid rare cases where a more
recent request would overwrite something that had not been sent
yet. While the peers would recover from this, it's better to avoid the
problem in the first place.

Patch 1 moves an advertisement option check under a lock so the changes
made in the next several patches will not introduce a race.

Patches 2-4 make sure ADD_ADDR, ADD_ADDR echo, and RM_ADDR options use
separate flags and data.

Patch 5 removes some now-redundant flags.

Patch 6 adds a selftest that confirms the advertisement reliability
improvements.

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.
