The sockmap feature allows bpf syscall from userspace, or based
on bpf sockops, replacing the sk_prot of sockets during protocol stack
processing with sockmap's custom read/write interfaces.
'''
tcp_rcv_state_process()
  syn_recv_sock()/subflow_syn_recv_sock()
    tcp_init_transfer(BPF_SOCK_OPS_PASSIVE_ESTABLISHED_CB)
      bpf_skops_established       <== sockops
        bpf_sock_map_update(sk)   <== call bpf helper
          tcp_bpf_update_proto()  <== update sk_prot
'''

When the server has MPTCP enabled but the client sends a TCP SYN
without MPTCP, subflow_syn_recv_sock() performs a fallback on the
subflow, replacing the subflow sk's sk_prot with the native sk_prot.
'''
subflow_syn_recv_sock()
  subflow_ulp_fallback()
    subflow_drop_ctx()
      mptcp_subflow_ops_undo_override()
'''

Then, this subflow can be normally used by sockmap, which replaces the
native sk_prot with sockmap's custom sk_prot. The issue occurs when the
user executes accept::mptcp_stream_accept::mptcp_fallback_tcp_ops().
Here, it uses sk->sk_prot to compare with the native sk_prot, but this
is incorrect when sockmap is used, as we may incorrectly set
sk->sk_socket->ops.

This fix uses the more generic sk_family for the comparison instead.

Additionally, this also prevents a WARNING from occurring:
