Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/4] mptcp: unify PM interfaces

These patches from Geliang better isolate the two MPTCP path-managers by
avoiding calling userspace PM functions from the in-kernel PM. Instead,
new functions declared in pm.c directly dispatch to the right PM.

In addition to have a clearer code, this also avoids a bit of duplicated
checks.

This is a refactoring, there is no behaviour change intended here.
