Just an FYI... we should have dropped my backport and went with the
backport that was provided by Eric Dumazet to upstream linux-stable. The
two backports are fairly different but Eric knows more about the TCP
stack than I ever will. :)

I don't know if it is a good idea to always revert our backport and take
upstream linux-stable's backport (there could be Ubuntu-specific changes
in ours) but we should probably flag it somehow when the two backports
differ.
