mptcp: avoid flipping mp_capable field in syn_recv_sock()

If multiple CPUs races on the same req_sock in syn_recv_sock(),
flipping such field can cause inconsistent child socket status.

When racing, the CPU losing the req ownership may still change
the mptcp request socket mp_capable flag while the CPU owning
the request is cloning the socket, leaving the child socket with
'is_mptcp' set but no 'mp_capable' flag.

Such socket will stay with 'conn' field cleared, heading to oops
in later mptcp callback.

Address the issue tracking the fallback status in a local variable.
