If no subflow is attached to the 'subflow' endpoint that is being removed, the addr ID will not be marked as available again.
Mark the linked ID as available when removing the 'subflow' endpoint if no subflow is attached to it.
While at it, the local_addr_used counter is decremented if the ID was marked as being used to reflect the reality, but also to allow adding new endpoints after that.
Fixes: b6c08380860b ("mptcp: remove addr and subflow in PM netlink")
For the same reasons as the ones invoked for v5.15, I don't think we need to backport this patch to v5.10.
Cheers, Matt
