Thank you for investigating this issue!

Please note that on our side with MPTCP, I can only reproduce this issue
locally, but not from our CI on GitHub Actions. The main difference is
the kernel (6.8 on the CI, 6.12 here) and the fact our CI is launching
virtme-ng from a VM. The rest should be the same.

Do not hesitate to report this issue + hack on vng's bug tracker :)
