Plus commit 946cedccbd73874 breaks the build:

LD init/built-in.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux1
net/built-in.o:sysctl_net.c:function tcp_v4_conn_request: error: undefined reference to 'cookie_v4_init_sequence'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

commit 946cedccbd7387488d2cee5da92cdfeb28d2e670
Author: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com>
Date: Tue Aug 30 03:21:44 2011 +0000

tcp: Change possible SYN flooding messages

"Possible SYN flooding on port xxxx " messages can fill logs on servers.

Change logic to log the message only once per listener, and add two new
SNMP counters to track :

TCPReqQFullDoCookies : number of times a SYNCOOKIE was replied to client

TCPReqQFullDrop : number of times a SYN request was dropped because
syncookies were not enabled.

Based on a prior patch from Tom Herbert, and suggestions from David.
