Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/6] mptcp: A few optimizations

Here is a set of patches that we've accumulated and tested in the MPTCP
tree.


Patch 1 removes the MPTCP-level tx skb cache that added complexity but
did not provide a meaningful benefit.

Patch 2 uses the fast socket lock in more places.

Patch 3 improves handling of a data-ready flag.

Patch 4 deletes an unnecessary and racy connection state check.

Patch 5 adds a MIB counter for one type of invalid MPTCP header.

Patch 6 improves self test failure output.


Matthieu Baerts (1):
  selftests: mptcp: display proper reason to abort tests

Paolo Abeni (5):
  mptcp: drop tx skb cache
  mptcp: use fast lock for subflows when possible
  mptcp: don't clear MPTCP_DATA_READY in sk_wait_event()
  mptcp: drop redundant test in move_skbs_to_msk()
  mptcp: add MIB counter for invalid mapping
