The mptcp_rtx_head() return value is bogus: we can have enqueued data not yet transmitted. The above may additionally cause spurious, unneeded MPTCP-level retransmissions. Fix the issue adding an explicit clearing of the rtx queue before trying to retransmit and checking for unacked data. Additionally drop an unneeded timer stop call and the unused mptcp_rtx_tail() helper.
