I think Sasha wanted to drop this patch [1]. But as I said earlier [2],
this patch is not wrong, it is just not needed in v5.9 because the
"Fixes" commit 010b430d5df5 ("mptcp: MPTCP_IPV6 should depend on IPV6
instead of selecting it") is not in v5.9.

I guess it is certainly easier to keep it because it is not wrong and
doesn't hurt.
