ok, the patch works fine - in the tested version i've renamed
the function and cleaned up the changelog a bit, see the final
patch below.
Thanks,
Ingo

Subject: [PATCH] net/tcp: Fix tcp memory limits initialization when !CONFIG_SYSCTL
sysctl_tcp_mem() initialization was moved to sysctl_tcp_ipv4.c
in commit 3dc43e3e4d0b52197d3205214fe8f162f9e0c334, since it
became a per-ns value.
That code, however, will never run when CONFIG_SYSCTL is
disabled, leading to bogus values on those fields - causing hung
TCP sockets.
This patch fixes it by keeping an initialization code in
tcp_init(). It will be overwritten by the first net namespace
init if CONFIG_SYSCTL is compiled in, and do the right thing if
it is compiled out.
It is also named properly as tcp_init_mem(), to properly signal
its non-sysctl side effect on TCP limits.
