mptcp: record subflows in RPS table
Accelerated Receive Flow Steering (aRFS) relies on sockets recording
their RX flow hash into the rps_sock_flow_table so that incoming packets
are steered to the CPU where the application runs.
With MPTCP, the application interacts with the parent MPTCP socket while
data is carried over per-subflow TCP sockets. Without recording these
subflows, aRFS cannot steer interrupts and RX processing for the flows
to the desired CPU.
Record all subflows in the RPS table by calling sock_rps_record_flow()
for each subflow at the start of mptcp_sendmsg(), mptcp_recvmsg() and
mptcp_stream_accept(), by using the new helper
mptcp_rps_record_subflows().
It does not by itself improve throughput, but ensures that IRQ and RX
processing are directed to the right CPU, which is a
prerequisite for effective aRFS.
