I'd like Paul to look at this.

It looks like it does the wrong thing when the option space increases,
which would have made hdr_delta negative if it were of a signed type.

I think therefore that sk_conn->icsk_ext_hdr_len needs to be adjusted
in both directions, just just when the option area length shrinks.
