mptcp_get_options() clears only the status group of struct mptcp_options_received; data_seq, subflow_seq and data_len are filled in by mptcp_parse_option() exclusively inside the DSS mapping block, which runs only when the DSS M (mapping present) bit is set. A peer can send a DSS option with the DATA_FIN flag set but the mapping bit clear. The parser then records mp_opt->data_fin while leaving data_len and data_seq uninitialized. For a zero-length segment mptcp_incoming_options() evaluates if (mp_opt.data_fin && mp_opt.data_len == 1 && mptcp_update_rcv_data_fin(msk, mp_opt.data_seq, mp_opt.dsn64)) which reads the uninitialized data_len and data_seq; KMSAN reports an uninit-value in mptcp_incoming_options(). The stale data_seq can also be fed into the receive-side DATA_FIN sequence tracking. Record the DATA_FIN flag only when the DSS option carries a mapping, so data_fin is never set without data_seq and data_len also being present. data_fin is part of the status group that mptcp_get_options() clears up front, so on the no-map path it stays zero and the zero-length DATA_FIN branch is simply skipped. A DATA_FIN is always transmitted together with a mapping (mptcp_write_data_fin() sets use_map along with data_seq and data_len), so legitimate DATA_FIN handling is unaffected.
