Tcp ack should be send as soon to avoid throuput drop during receive tcp
traffic.

What about IPv6?

Also, what about all the protocols that you're *not* hacking this for?
Is the latency induced by aggregation really that poor?

I'm not really a networking expert here, but this whole patch smells bad
to me.

I dislike polluting the (driver-global) main.h with #include's that only
are used in one file. Especially when you talk about seemingly
layer-violating TCP hacks. Can you move this to main.c instead?

We didn't observe throughput drop due to ack block yet..
It was considered to be an optional enhance.
Let's drop it in this patch serials.
