AFAICS this will create a 3 bytes hole. That could be bad if it will
also increase the number of cachelines used by struct tcp_request_sock.
Please include the pahole info and struct size in the commit message.

If there is no size problem I guess you are better off using a 'bool'
for 'accecn_ok'

A good bunch of conditionals will be added to the fast path checking
this flag. Is simult open really a thing for AccECN? Can we simple
disable AccECN in such scenarios and simplify the code a bit? In my
limited experience only syzkaller reliably use it.

This is outside the fastpath area, so possibly the struct size increase
is less critical, but AFAICS this will create a 6bits hole (as the next
u8 has only 6bit used). I think it's better to read the 'unused' field
to mark such hole.

Possibly some human readable defines could help instead of magic numbers
here.

The same expression is used above possibly you can create a new helper
for this statement.

...

This patch is quite huge. Any hope to break id down to a more palatable
size? i.e. moving the 3rd ack/self connect handling to a separate patch
(if that thing is really needed).

/P
