I just noticed that NIPA reported some issues due to these 2 patches. In
short, some packets (MPTCP ADD_ADDR notifications) can now be
retransmitted quicker, but some tests check MIB counters and don't
expect retransmissions. If the environment is a bit slow, it is possible
to have more retransmissions. We should adapt the tests to avoid false
positives.

Is it possible to drop just these two patches? Or do you prefer to mark
the whole series as "Changes requested"?
