This patch disables FACK by default as RACK is the successor of FACK
(inspired by the insights behind FACK).

FACK[1] in Linux works as follows: a packet P is deemed lost,
if packet Q of higher sequence is s/acked and P and Q are distant
by at least dupthresh number of packets in sequence space.

FACK is more aggressive than the IETF recommened recovery for SACK
(RFC3517 A Conservative Selective Acknowledgment (SACK)-based Loss
 Recovery Algorithm for TCP), because a single SACK may trigger
fast recovery. This obviously won't work well with reordering so
FACK is dynamically disabled upon detecting reordering.

RACK supersedes FACK by using time distance instead of sequence
distance. On reordering, RACK waits for a quarter of RTT receiving
a single SACK before starting recovery. (the timer can be made more
adaptive in the future by measuring reordering distance in time,
but currently RTT/4 seem to work well.) Once the recovery starts,
RACK behaves almost like FACK because it reduces the reodering
window to 1ms, so it fast retransmits quickly. In addition RACK
can detect loss retransmission as it does not care about the packet
sequences (being repeated or not), which is extremely useful when
the connection is going through a traffic policer.

Google server experiments indicate that disabling FACK after enabling
RACK has negligible impact on the overall loss recovery performance
with more reordering events detected.  But we still keep the FACK
implementation for backup if RACK has bugs that needs to be disabled.
