the problem originates from uncorrect lock annotation in the mptcp
code and is only visible since commit 2dcb96bacce3 ("net: core: Correct
the sock::sk_lock.owned lockdep annotations"), but is present since
the port-based endpoint support initial implementation.

This patch addresses the issue introducing a nested variant of
lock_sock_fast() and using it in the relevant code path.
