This description sounds "strange":

- Is this a fix or an optimisation? i.e. is this check needed for some
  reason?
  → If yes, please explain why in the commit message, and eventually add
    a Fixes tag.

- Or is it just some extra code that is not needed for MPTCP, but
  doesn't hurt
  → If yes, do we really need it?

Cheers,
Matt
