    Update tcp_lro with tested bugfixes from Netflix and LLNW: · d7fb35d1

        rrs - Lets make the LRO code look for true dup-acks and window update acks
              fly on through and combine.
        rrs - Make the LRO engine a bit more aware of ack-only seq space. Lets not
              have it incorrectly wipe out newer acks for older acks when we have
              out-of-order acks (common in wifi environments).
        jeggleston - LRO eating window updates
    
    Based on all of the above I think we are RFC compliant doing it this way:
    
    https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1122
    
    section 4.2.2.16
    
    "Note that TCP has a heuristic to select the latest window update despite
    possible datagram reordering; as a result, it may ignore a window update with
    a smaller window than previously offered if neither the sequence number nor the
    acknowledgment number is increased."
