TCP has been using it to work around the possibility of tcp_delack_timer()
finding the socket owned by user.
After commit 6f458dfb40 ("tcp: improve latencies of timer triggered events")
we added TCP_DELACK_TIMER_DEFERRED atomic bit for more immediate recovery,
so we can get rid of icsk_ack.blocked
This frees space that following patch will reuse.
