On fallback socket the retrans timer is a quite convoluted no-op, but
currently nothing prevents the MPTCP core to keep rescheduling it.
Additionally gate RTX timer reset to the msk not being fallen back to
TCP yet. To avoid adding multiple tests in fast-path, use a new flags
bit for such condition.
The RTX enable bit is clear at close time and set before the msk could
start retransmitting, with a couple of caveats:
- passive sockets inherit the bit from the listener msk; set the bit on
such socket to avoid flipping it in the fast-path, even if the
listener will obviously never retransmit.
- while fastopening (MPTFO), mptcp_sendmsg_fastopen still ends-up
calling mptcp_connect via tcp_sendmsg_fastopen ->
__inet_stream_connect(ssk->sk_socket), and the first subflow's
sk_socket points to the msk one.
