[PATCH net 1/2] mptcp: don't account accept() of non-MPC client as fallback to TCP

["Matthieu Baerts (NGI0)" <matttbe@kernel.org>]

From: Davide Caratti <dcaratti@redhat.com>

Current MPTCP servers increment MPTcpExtMPCapableFallbackACK when they
accept non-MPC connections. As reported by Christoph, this is "surprising"
because the counter might become greater than MPTcpExtMPCapableSYNRX.

MPTcpExtMPCapableFallbackACK counter's name suggests it should only be
incremented when a connection was seen using MPTCP options, then a
fallback to TCP has been done. Let's do that by incrementing it when
the subflow context of an inbound MPC connection attempt is dropped.
Also, update mptcp_connect.sh kselftest, to ensure that the
above MIB does not increment in case a pure TCP client connects to a
MPTCP server.

Fixes: fc518953bc9c ("mptcp: add and use MIB counter infrastructure")
