Any latency related tuning taking action at the subflow level does not really affect the user-space, as only the main MPTCP socket is relevant. Anyway any limiting setting may foul the MPTCP scheduler, not being able to fully use the subflow-level cwin, leading to very poor b/w usage. Enforce notsent_lowat to be a no-op on every subflow. Note that TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT is currently not supported, and properly dealing with that will require more invasive changes.
