commit 2293c57484ae64c9a3c847c8807db8c26a3a4d41 upstream.
During the connection establishment, a peer can tell the other one that it cannot establish new subflows to the initial IP address and port by setting the 'C' flag [1]. Doing so makes sense when the sender is behind a strict NAT, operating behind a legacy Layer 4 load balancer, or using anycast IP address for example.
When this 'C' flag is set, the path-managers must then not try to establish new subflows to the other peer's initial IP address and port. The in-kernel PM has access to this info, but the userspace PM didn't.
The RFC8684 [1] is strict about that:
(...) therefore the receiver MUST NOT try to open any additional subflows toward this address and port.
So it is important to tell the userspace about that as it is responsible for the respect of this flag.
When a new connection is created and established, the Netlink events now contain the existing but not currently used 'flags' attribute. When MPTCP_PM_EV_FLAG_DENY_JOIN_ID0 is set, it means no other subflows to the initial IP address and port -- info that are also part of the event -- can be established.

commit 24733e193a0d68f20d220e86da0362460c9aa812 upstream.
The previous commit adds the MPTCP_PM_EV_FLAG_DENY_JOIN_ID0 flag. Make sure it is correctly announced by the other peer when it has been received.
pm_nl_ctl will now display 'deny_join_id0:1' when monitoring the events, and when this flag was set by the other peer.
The 'Fixes' tag here below is the same as the one from the previous commit: this patch here is not fixing anything wrong in the selftests, but it validates the previous fix for an issue introduced by this commit ID.
