What is not working exactly ?

Sending a 'big wscale' should not really matter, unless perhaps there
is a buggy stack at the remote end ?

This seems not needed to me.

We call tcp_select_initial_window() with tcp_full_space(sk) passed as
the 2nd parameter.

tcp_full_space(sk) will then apply :

space = min(*window_clamp, space);

Please cook a packetdrill test to demonstrate what you are seeing ?
