'waiting for network packets to be complete' I think.

I would add a link to https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-devel/2017-February/035577.html
and maybe even copy the data you put in there.

I'd drop the 'inline'

I suspect we'll need to add a configure check for this? It seems to be
called TCP_NOPUSH in OpenBSD? https://man.openbsd.org/tcp

Might be slightly more readable if 'enable' is renamed to 'auto_flush'
