The sockmap feature allows bpf syscall from userspace, or based on bpf sockops, replacing the sk_prot of sockets during protocol stack processing with sockmap's custom read/write interfaces.

When the server has MPTCP enabled but the client sends a TCP SYN without MPTCP, subflow_syn_recv_sock() performs a fallback on the subflow, replacing the subflow sk's sk_prot with the native sk_prot. ''' subflow_syn_recv_sock() subflow_ulp_fallback() subflow_drop_ctx() mptcp_subflow_ops_undo_override() '''
Then, this subflow can be normally used by sockmap, which replaces the native sk_prot with sockmap's custom sk_prot. The issue occurs when the user executes accept::mptcp_stream_accept::mptcp_fallback_tcp_ops(). Here, it uses sk->sk_prot to compare with the native sk_prot, but this is incorrect when sockmap is used, as we may incorrectly set sk->sk_socket->ops.
This fix uses the more generic sk_family for the comparison instead.
Additionally, this also prevents a WARNING from occurring:

Fixes: cec37a6e41aa ("mptcp: Handle MP_CAPABLE options for outgoing connections")
The previous Fixes tag you used in the previous versions was correct for this second patch:
Fixes: 0b4f33def7bb ("mptcp: fix tcp fallback crash")
But well, in terms of backports, that will be the same. So I guess we don't need a new version just for that.
Also, I guess you missed my comments from the two previous versions:
please remove the 'net,' prefix from the title. And maybe good to mention 'sockmap', e.g.
mptcp: fix proto fallback detection with sockmap
But same here, fine like that.

For next time: the Signed-off-by of the sender should be at the end. So here, your SoB should go to the end, after the already sent RvB tags.
But again, I don't think we need a v6 for that, except if net maintainers prefer to.
