Revert "mptcp: add needs_id for netlink appending addr"
[ Upstream commit
8e2760eaab778494fc1fa257031e0e1799647f46 ]
This commit was originally adding the ability to add MPTCP endpoints
with ID 0 by accident. The in-kernel PM, handling MPTCP endpoints at the
net namespace level, is not supposed to handle endpoints with such ID,
because this ID 0 is reserved to the initial subflow, as mentioned in
the MPTCPv1 protocol [1], a per-connection setting.
Note that 'ip mptcp endpoint add id 0' stops early with an error, but
other tools might still request the in-kernel PM to create MPTCP
endpoints with this restricted ID 0.
In other words, it was wrong to call the mptcp_pm_has_addr_attr_id
helper to check whether the address ID attribute is set: if it was set
to 0, a new MPTCP endpoint would be created with ID 0, which is not
expected, and might cause various issues later.
