I think we want to keep it conditional, to avoid double-initialization
if the BPF code sets the congestion control algorithm and initializes
it. But that's relatively new and subtle, so it might be nice for this
patch to add a comment about that, since it's touching this part of
the code anyway:

- icsk->icsk_ca_initialized = 0;
bpf_skops_established(sk, bpf_op, skb);
+ /* Initialize congestion control unless BPF initialized it already: */
if (!icsk->icsk_ca_initialized)
tcp_init_congestion_control(sk);
