mptcp: honour configured min/max RTO in retransmit paths
The MPTCP-level retransmit timers (DATA_FIN retransmissions and the fallback timeout) used the hard-coded TCP_RTO_MIN / TCP_RTO_MAX constants, ignoring the tcp_rto_min_us and tcp_rto_max_ms sysctls. Make them follow the sysctls instead: seed icsk_rto_min / icsk_rto_max on the MPTCP socket from the per-netns sysctls in __mptcp_init_sock() -- the msk does not go through tcp_init_sock(), so these fields would otherwise stay zero -- and read them directly where the constants were used: - mptcp_set_datafin_timeout(): both the backoff cap computation and the resulting timer_ival. The two sysctls are validated independently, so rto_min > rto_max is a valid configuration; keep a max_t() guard so ilog2() is never called with 0. - __mptcp_set_timeout(): the fallback when no subflow timeout is available. The icsk fields are read directly instead of using the tcp_rto_min()/tcp_rto_max() helpers: the MPTCP socket does not perform routing lookups in these paths, so the rto_min route metric checked by tcp_rto_min() can never apply here. The TCP_RTO_MIN_US / TCP_RTO_MAX_MS socket options are not supported by MPTCP setsockopt() either; this can be revisited if they get supported on MPTCP sockets. The remaining uses of TCP_RTO_MAX in net/mptcp/ctrl.c (default add_addr_timeout) and net/mptcp/subflow.c (MP_FAIL timeout) are intentionally left unchanged: they use the constant as a default duration, not as an RTO bound on a retransmit timer.
