Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/3] net: TCP thin linear timeouts

Sorry to be too picky about the naming, but "rm_expb" really doesn't
mean what is actually done.  Perhaps TCP_THIN_LINEAR_BACKOFF and
sysctl_tcp_thin_linear_backoff?

Also, as debated on some other recent patches, shouldn't the global
sysctl specify the default, and the per socket option specify the
forced override?
