I think I got completely wrong the problem.
So this patch is trying to use tcp keepalives to detect disconnection
making possible new connections. The problem is that the server
stops accepting connections when it handle one client and return to
accepting new connections when it finishes servicing the client.
This as the usb device usage is exclusive.
I can see that in the current protocol there's no authentication
so all are filtered at tcp/firewall levels.
I suppose being usb redirection that the expected latency is relatively
low.
The disconnection is detected when writing, as the other side is
not replying with acks (or if the machine became available replies
with some ICMP notifications) so the usb server must be stuck reading
from the client.
Would not better instead of having to tweak the time by hand to
detect new connection attempts and then try to detect disconnections
or either stop serving the current client?

Patch looks good otherwise.
