Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: prevent BPF accessing lowat from a subflow socket.
Alexei reported the following splat:

The root cause of the issue is that bpf allows accessing mptcp-level
proto_ops from a tcp subflow scope.
Fix the issue detecting the problematic call and preventing any action.
Affected configurations
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.8.5)
• linux linux kernel 6.9
