If this is happening, then this would be a bug, and a Fixes: tag would
be needed.
If this is not yet happening, but would happen in the future, this
patch would hide a bug.
You forgot to CC MPTCP maintainers and reviewers ?
Matthieu Baerts <matttbe@xxxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:NETWORKING [MPTCP])
Mat Martineau <martineau@xxxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:NETWORKING [MPTCP])
Geliang Tang <geliang@xxxxxxxxxx> (reviewer:NETWORKING [MPTCP])
In my opinion, we should pass @remaining to mptcp_syn_options()
arguments to avoid side effects.
