   </TASK>

The actions that caused that seem to be:

 - Create an MPTCP endpoint for address A without any flags
 - Create a new MPTCP connection from address A
 - Remove the MPTCP endpoint: the corresponding subflows will be removed
 - Recreate the endpoint with the same ID, but with the subflow flag
 - Change the same endpoint to add the fullmesh flag

In this case, msk->pm.local_addr_used has been kept to 0 as expected,
but the corresponding bit in msk->pm.id_avail_bitmap was still unset
after having removed the endpoint, causing the splat later on.

When removing an endpoint, the corresponding endpoint ID was only marked
as available for "signal" types with an announced address, plus all
"subflow" types, but not the other types like an endpoint corresponding
to the initial subflow. In these cases, re-creating an endpoint with the
same ID didn't signal/create anything. Here, adding the fullmesh flag
was creating the splat when calling __mark_subflow_endp_available() from
mptcp_pm_nl_fullmesh(), because msk->pm.local_addr_used was set to 0
while the ID was marked as used.

To fix this issue, the corresponding bit in msk->pm.id_avail_bitmap can
always be set as available when removing an MPTCP in-kernel endpoint. In
other words, moving the call to __set_bit() to do it in all cases,
except for "subflow" types where this bit is handled in a dedicated
helper.

Note: instead of adding a new spin_(un)lock_bh that would be taken in
all cases, do all the actions requiring the spin lock under the same
block.

This modification potentially fixes another issue reported by syzbot,
see [1]. But without a reproducer or more details about what exactly
happened before, it is hard to confirm.
