If the msk is closed before sending or receiving any data,
no DATA_FIN is generated, instead an MPC ack packet is
crafted out.
In the above scenario, the MPTCP protocol creates and sends a
pure ack and such packets matches also the criteria for an
MPC ack and the protocol tries first to insert MPC options,
leading to the described error.
This change addresses the issue by avoiding the insertion of an
MPC option for DATA_FIN packets or if the sub-flow is not
established.
To avoid doing multiple times the same test, fetch the data_fin
flag in a bool variable and pass it to both the interested
helpers.

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.
