commit f5ce0714623cffd00bf2a83e890d09c609b7f50a upstream.
When add_addr_timeout was set to 0, this caused the ADD_ADDR to be
retransmitted immediately, which looks like a buggy behaviour. Instead,
interpret 0 as "no retransmissions needed".
The documentation is updated to explicitly state that setting the timeout
to 0 disables retransmission.

An MPTCP firewall blackhole can be detected if the following SYN
retransmission after a fallback to "plain" TCP is accepted.
In case of blackhole, a similar technique to the one in place with TFO
is now used: MPTCP can be disabled for a certain period of time, 1h by
default. This time period will grow exponentially when more blackhole
issues get detected right after MPTCP is re-enabled and will reset to
the initial value when the blackhole issue goes away.
The blackhole period can be modified thanks to a new sysctl knob:
blackhole_timeout. Two new MIB counters help understanding what's
happening:
- 'Blackhole', incremented when a blackhole is detected.
- 'MPCapableSYNTXDisabled', incremented when an MPTCP connection
directly falls back to TCP during the blackhole period.
Because the technique is inspired by the one used by TFO, an important
part of the new code is similar to what can find in tcp_fastopen.c, with
some adaptations to the MPTCP case.

Similar to what is done in other 'sysctl' pages: it looks clearer from a
readability perspective.
This might cause troubles in the short/mid-term with the backports, but
by not putting new entries at the end, this can help to reduce conflicts
in case of backports in the long term. We don't change the information
here too often, so it looks OK to do that.

This sysctl knob has been added recently, but the documentation has not
been updated.
This knob is used to show the available schedulers choices that are
registered, similar to 'net.ipv4.tcp_available_congestion_control'.

The MPTCP protocol allows sockets with no alive subflows to stay
in ESTABLISHED status for and user-defined timeout, to allow for
later subflows creation.
Currently such timeout is constant - TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN. Let the
user-space configure them via a newly added sysctl, to better cope
with busy servers and simplify (make them faster) the relevant
pktdrill tests.
Note that the new know does not apply to orphaned MPTCP socket
waiting for the data_fin handshake completion: they always wait
TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN.

When looking at the rendered HTML version, we can see 'pm_type' is not
displayed with a bold font:
https://docs.kernel.org/5.19/networking/mptcp-sysctl.html
The empty line under 'pm_type' is then removed to have the same style as
the others.

The msk can use backup subflows to transmit in-sequence data
only if there are no other active subflow. On active backup
scenario, the MPTCP connection can do forward progress only
due to MPTCP retransmissions - rtx can pick backup subflows.
This patch introduces a new flag flow MPTCP subflows: if the
underlying TCP connection made no progresses for long time,
and there are other less problematic subflows available, the
given subflow become stale.
Stale subflows are not considered active: if all non backup
subflows become stale, the MPTCP scheduler can pick backup
subflows for plain transmissions.
Stale subflows can return in active state, as soon as any reply
from the peer is observed.
Active backup scenarios can now leverage the available b/w
with no restrinction.

To avoid confusions, it seems better to parse this sysctl parameter as a
boolean. We use it as a boolean, no need to parse an integer and bring
confusions if we see a value different from 0 and 1, especially with
this parameter name: enabled.
It seems fine to do this modification because the default value is 1
(enabled). Then the only other interesting value to set is 0 (disabled).
All other values would not have changed the default behaviour.
