With the in-kernel path-manager, it is possible to change the 'fullmesh'
flag. The code in mptcp_pm_nl_fullmesh() expects to change it only on
'subflow' endpoints, to recreate more or less subflows using the linked
address.
Unfortunately, the set_flags() hook was a bit more permissive, and
allowed 'implicit' endpoints to get the 'fullmesh' flag while it is not
allowed before.
That's what syzbot found, triggering the following warning:

Here, syzbot managed to set the 'fullmesh' flag on an 'implicit' and
used -- according to 'id_avail_bitmap' -- endpoint, causing the PM to
try decrement the local_addr_used counter which is only incremented for
the 'subflow' endpoint.
Note that 'no type' endpoints -- not 'subflow', 'signal', 'implicit' --
are fine, because their ID will not be marked as used in the 'id_avail'
bitmap, and setting 'fullmesh' can help forcing the creation of subflow
when receiving an ADD_ADDR.
