The RFC 8684 mandates that no-data DATA FIN packets should carry
a DSS with 0 sequence number and data len equal to 1. Currently,
on FIN retransmission we re-use the existing mapping; if the previous
fin transmission was part of a partially acked data packet, we could
end-up writing in the egress packet a non-compliant DSS.
The above will be detected by a "Bad mapping" warning on the receiver
side.
This change addresses the issue explicitly checking for 0 len packet
when adding the DATA_FIN option.
Fixes: 6d0060f600ad ("mptcp: Write MPTCP DSS headers to outgoing data packets")

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.
