Hi Paolo,

I was thinking to change it into GENMASK_U32() and comments like below.

It is intended to send AccECN option at least once per 2^22-byte increase in 
the counter.

But this is done by checking the bit edges (from bit 22) of the byte counters 
to avoid extra variables.

u32 oldbytes = tp->received_ecn_bytes[ecnfield - 1];
u32 bytes_mask = GENMASK_U32(31, 22);

tp->received_ecn_bytes[ecnfield - 1] += len;
tp->accecn_minlen = max_t(u8, tp->accecn_minlen,
                          minlen);

/* Send AccECN option if any ECN byte counter is
 * increased by at least 2^22 bytes.
 */
if ((tp->received_ecn_bytes[ecnfield - 1] ^ oldbytes) &
    bytes_mask) {
        tcp_accecn_opt_demand_min(sk, 1);
}

Would it make more sense to you?
