   I think that #ifdef code should be changed to check for the
   run-time enabled-ness of ECN.  Also, is there a way to turn
   ECN on/off for a specific socket only?

Wrong, a host adhering to the ECN rfc designates the new meanings of
these bits.

In fact I would argue that the lowest two bits should be zapped out
for TCP sockets even when CONFIG_INET_ECN is not set.
