mptcp: avoid flipping mp_capable field in syn_recv_sock()
If multiple CPUs races on the same req_sock in syn_recv_sock(), flipping such field can cause inconsistent child socket status. When racing, the CPU losing the req ownership may still change the mptcp request socket mp_capable flag while the CPU owning the request is cloning the socket, leaving the child socket with 'is_mptcp' set but no 'mp_capable' flag. Such socket will stay with 'conn' field cleared, heading to oops in later mptcp callback. Address the issue tracking the fallback status in a local variable.
