When requested by incoming conections, ECN is enabled with not just tcp_ecn = 2 but also with tcp_ecn = 1. This patch makes it clear that with tcp_ecn = 1, ECN is enabled when requested by incoming connections. Also fix spelling of 'incoming'. Signed-off-by: Vijay Subramanian Signed-off-by: David S.
