commite598d8981fupstream. The Fixes commit mentioned this: > An MPTCP firewall blackhole can be detected if the following SYN > retransmission after a fallback to "plain" TCP is accepted. But in fact, this blackhole was detected if any following SYN retransmissions after a fallback to TCP was accepted. That's because 'mptcp_subflow_early_fallback()' will set 'request_mptcp' to 0, and 'mpc_drop' will never be reset to 0 after. This is an issue, because some not so unusual situations might cause the kernel to detect a false-positive blackhole, e.g. a client trying to connect to a server while the network is not ready yet, causing a few SYN retransmissions, before reaching the end server.
