This modification is OK for me, but would it not be time to stop
patching the kernel of these distributions to disable MPTCP by default?

As far as I know, only one Linux distribution is doing that, and that's
the one supporting MPTCP the best :)
It was making sense when MPTCP was backported to older kernels, but now
that v6.12 is used as a new base, it probably no longer makes sense, no?
