[PATCH net-next 4/5] mptcp: enforce hard limit on backlog flushing

["Matthieu Baerts (NGI0)" <matttbe@kernel.org>]

From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>

Currently a wild producer could keep the backlog flushing operation
spinning for an unbound time.

Since the previous patch, the amount of data present in the backlog is
hard-limited. Move the backlog len update at the end of the flush loop to
prevent it spinning forever.

Also, no need to splice back the remaining skbs list into the backlog, as
such list is always empty after each backlog processing loop.
