The filename of the patch is: mptcp-fix-proto-fallback-detection-with-bpf.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory.
If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let stable@vger.kernel.org know about it.
@Sasha: thank you for having resolved the conflicts for this patch (and many others related to MPTCP recently). Sadly, it is causing troubles.
@Greg/Sasha: is it possible to remove it from 6.1, 5.15 and 5.10 queues please? (The related patch in 6.6 and above is OK)
@Jiayuan: did you not specify you initially saw this issue on a v6.1 kernel? By chance, do you already have a fix for that version?
Cheers, Matt

Dropped it from the older trees, thanks!

Hi Matthieu, I’ll send a separate patch for v6.1 immediately — the issue causes a panic in v6.1.
