No it doesn't change any functionality. By not including OPT_P_CONNECTION
in the mask sent to verify permission the previous connection blacks check
is disabled. And this is done only when pull_mode is True.
So the only effect is just to suppress the message about previous
connection blocks when this option is parsed as a pushed option.
The key here is that check pull_mode to know that we are processing a
pushed option.
