I would vote for keeping the process simple and keeping all the above
patches on net-next.

If we choose otherwise, I think we should also update a bit the
("mptcp: update MIB_RMSUBFLOW in cmd_sf_destroy") commit message to
something more tuned for -net. Alike: "The user-space patch manager
currently miss the required update of the subflow destruction MIB,
address the issue "...
