Subflow creation may be initiated by the path manager when the primary connection is fully established and a remote address has been received via ADD_ADDR. Create an in-kernel sock and use kernel_connect() to initiate connection. Passive sockets can't acquire the mptcp socket lock at subflow creation time, so an additional list protected by a new spinlock is used to track the MPJ subflows. Such list is spliced into conn_list tail every time the msk socket lock is acquired, so that it will not interfere with data flow on the original connection. Data flow and connection failover not addressed by this commit.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
