Otherwise we will find stray/unexpected/old extensions value on next iteration. On tcp_write_xmit() we can end-up splitting an already queued skb in two parts, via tso_fragment(). The newly created skb can be allocated via the tx cache and the mptcp stack will not be aware of it, so nobody set properly the MPTCP ext. End result, we transmit the skb using an hold MPTCP DSS map and that confuses the rx side/corrupt the stream. It requires some concurrent conditions, so it's not deterministic. Resetting the ext on recycle fixes all the current mptcp self tests issues. Apparently only MPTCP has issues with this kind of stray ext, so an alternative would be add an additional mptcp hook in tso_fragment() or in sk_stream_alloc_skb() to always init the ext.
