Oops, I misunderstood the real situation of the tcp header option
test. My intention is to bpf_setsockopt() just like setget_sockopt
does.

Thanks for reminding me. I will totally remove the header test in the
next version.

But this branch hasn't included the rto max feature. I was trying to
say that what I wrote is based on the rto max feature which only
exists in the net-next tree for now.

I wonder whether I need to introduce a new flag like this patch or
reuse the TCP_RTO_MAX_MS socket option for bpf?

Thanks,
Jason
