[PATCH net v2 0/2] mptcp: prevent MPC handshake on port-based signal endpoints

[Matthieu Baerts (NGI0)]

MPTCP connection requests toward a listening socket created by the
in-kernel PM for a port based signal endpoint will never be accepted,
they need to be explicitly rejected.

- Patch 1: Explicitly reject such requests. A fix for >= v5.12.

- Patch 2: Cover this case in the MPTCP selftests to avoid regressions.

Changes in v2:
- This new version fixes the root cause for the issue Cong Wang sent a
  patch for a few weeks ago, see the v1, and the explanations below. The
  new version is very different from the v1, from a different author.
  Thanks to Cong Wang for the first analysis, and to Paolo for having
  spot the root cause, and sent a fix for it.
