If I add a test on listener_sk->sk_priority being 0, would you accept
the patch ? If classification is done after tcp stack, it wont be hurt
by initial skb priority ?

instead of :

	/* SYNACK sent in SYNCOOKIE mode have low priority */
	skb->priority = nocache ? TC_PRIO_FILLER : sk->sk_priority;

Having :

	/* SYNACK sent in SYNCOOKIE mode have low priority */
	skb->priority = (nocache && !sk->sk_priority) ?
			TC_PRIO_FILLER : sk->sk_priority;
