Subject: [PATCH]: Revert accept queue backlog change.


Wei, I have to revert your change, it is incorrect as pointed
out by other people here on netdev.

BSD sockets basically define the 'backlog' parameter to listen()
to mean "allow backlog + 1" connections to be queued to the socket.
This allows a backlog parameter of "0" to allow 1 connection, and
there are real applications which do this.
