Active subflow are inserted into the connection list at creation time.
When the MPJ handshake completes successfully, a new subflow creation
netlink event is generated correctly, but the current code wrongly
avoid initializing a couple of subflow data.
The above will cause misbehavior on a few exceptional events: unneeded
mptcp-level retransmission on msk-level sequence wrap-around and infinite
mapping fallback even when a MPJ socket is present.
Address the issue factoring out the needed initialization in a new helper
and invoking the latter from __mptcp_finish_join() time for passive
subflow and from mptcp_finish_join() for active ones.

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.
