Thank you for the v2, and for having adapted MPTCP as well.

Even if the series as a whole is OK, NIPA (and the MPTCP CI) are
complaining about this line, because in this patch, 'oldval' is set but
not used. It is used in the next patch.

I guess we want to fix this to prevent issues with 'git bisect'. If yes,
do you mind moving the declaration to the next patch please?

Same here in MPTCP:

Apart from this small detail, the rest looks good to me.
