When the msk socket is cloned at MPC handshake time, a few
fields are initialized in a racy way outside mptcp_sk_clone()
and the msk socket lock.
The above is due historical reasons: before commit a88d0092b24b
("mptcp: simplify subflow_syn_recv_sock()") as the first subflow socket
carrying all the needed date was not available yet at msk creation
time
We can now refactor the code moving the missing initialization bit
under the socket lock, removing the init race and avoiding some
code duplication.
This will also simplify the next patch, as all msk->first write
access are now under the msk socket lock.

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.
