MPTCP v0.91 Release

The MPTCP v0.91 release is based on the Linux Kernel Longterm Support release v4.1.x. Its new features compared to the v0.90 release are:

Support for ADD_ADDR2 as specified in draft-ietf-mptcp-rfc6824bis (Fabrizio Demaria)

To use it, you need to set the sysctl net.mptcp.mptcp_version to 1. Please note that although mptcp_version is set to 1, this is not yet a complete implementation of RFC6824bis that introduces more changes beyond the ADD_ADDR2. It is not recommended at this stage to set mptcp_version to 1 on production machines.
