Greg, Sasha -

Is it possible to drop this one patch? It makes one of the mptcp
selftests fail (mptcp_join.sh, "single address, backup").

Looks like this patch has been included in stable because of this single
hunk that helps "mptcp: Do TCP fallback on early DSS checksum failure"
apply cleanly:

"mptcp: Do TCP fallback on early DSS checksum failure" also adds a bit to
that bitfield, but there is no functional dependency between the patches.

If you need to drop the "mptcp: Do TCP fallback..." patch too, I can send
a backported version tomorrow that accounts for that bitfield change.


Thanks!
