Add a hook named update_socket_protocol in __sys_socket(), for bpf
progs to attach to and update socket protocol. One user case is to
force legacy TCP apps to create and use MPTCP sockets instead of
TCP ones.
Define a mod_ret set named bpf_mptcp_fmodret_ids, add the hook
update_socket_protocol into this set, and register it in
bpf_mptcp_kfunc_init().

This "kfuns which will be used in BPF programs" piece is not accurate. It is a
fmod_ret entry point for bpf prog.

Paolo, could you help to take another look and ack this patch if it has
addressed your earlier comment ?
