Data from a send queue is sent only if there is enough space in a
window, so when we restore unacked data, we need to expand a window to
fit this data.

Currently we don't do this and tcp_acceptable_seq() returns
tcp_wnd_end(tp) instead of tp->snd_nxt. The other side drops packets
with this seq, becuse tcp_sequence() returns false (seq < tp->rcv_nxt).

It's a bad idea to change snd_wnd without changing snd_wl1 and
max_window. Alexey suggests to save and restore these parametrs, because
they were set by a remote side.

So pls drop this patch.
