The actions that caused that seem to be:
- Set the MPTCP subflows limit to 0
- Create an MPTCP endpoint with both the 'signal' and 'subflow' flags
- Create a new MPTCP connection from a different address: an ADD_ADDR
linked to the MPTCP endpoint will be sent ('signal' flag), but no
subflows is initiated ('subflow' flag)
- Remove the MPTCP endpoint
