Discard the ACK if we find options that do not match current sysctl
settings.

Previously it was possible to create a connection with sack,
wscale, etc. enabled even if the feature was disabled via sysctl.

Also remove an unneeded call to tcp_sack_reset() in
cookie_check_timestamp:
Both call sites (cookie_v4_check, cookie_v6_check) zero
"struct tcp_options_received", hand it to tcp_parse_options()
(which does not change tcp_opt->num_sacks/dsack) and then call
cookie_check_timestamp().

Even if num_sacks/dsacks were changed, the structure is allocated on
the stack and after cookie_check_timestamp returns only a few selected
members are copied to the inet_request_sock.
