I think it should returns 'const char *' and even the 'net' argument
should be const.

I think it would be nice keeping this infrastructure in a separate
file, but I have no strong opinion on it.

uhm... it would be nice to avoid the indirect call, but I don't see any
solution other then IDC wrapper usage

I think we should do the lookup in mptcp_init_sock(), and copy the
scheduler from the parent in mptcp_sk_clone().

This needs some more logic:
- it must take in account backup vs non backup
- it should consider if the given subflow has available write
space/snd_wnd
- it should move from the 'last_snd' subflow to the 'next' one, instead
of always selecting the fist subflow other then 'last_snd'. Otherwise
with 3 non backup subflow active we will never pick the last created
one.
There is an import side question, already asked by Christoph, why the
round robin? perhpas we should consider instead some different
scheduler, known to perform well. @Christoph: which is the 'best'
mptcp.org scheduler out there? blest?
Thanks!

This is the main question I have!
We've also discussed the idea of eBPF-based schedulers, so I've been
thinking we would have one built-in scheduler and then allow alternatives
(like round robin) via eBPF.
If there's a good use case for round robin maybe there's a solution here
similar to what we did with the fullmesh path manager: could there be a
configuration knob for the existing scheduler that makes it try to *not*
use the last-used subflow, instead of favoring the last-used subflow?
