The data fin flag is set only via a DSS option, but
mptcp_incoming_options() copies it unconditionally from the
provided RX options.
Since we do not clear all the mptcp sock RX options in a
socket free/alloc cycle, we can end-up with a stray data_fin
value while parsing e.g. MPC packets.
That would lead to mapping data corruption and will trigger
a few WARN_ON() in the RX path.
Instead of adding a costly memset(), fetch the data_fin flag
only for DSS packets - when we always explicitly initialize
such bit at option parsing time.

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.
