    When using the default sequence window size (100) I got the following in
    my logs:
    
    Jun 22 14:24:09 localhost kernel: [ 1492.114775] DCCP: Step 6 failed for

    I went to alter the default sysctl and it didn't take for new sockets.
    Below patch fixes this.
    
    I think the default is too low but it is what the DCCP spec specifies.
    
    As a side effect of this my rx speed using iperf goes from about 2.8 Mbits/sec
    to 3.5. This is still far too slow but it is a step in the right direction.
    
    Compile tested only for IPv6 but not particularly complex change.
