I broke this in commit 3de96471bd7fb76406e975ef6387abe3a0698149:

[TCP]: Wrap-safed reordering detection FRTO check

tcp_process_frto should always see a valid frto_highmark. An invalid
frto_highmark (zero) is very likely what ultimately caused a seqno
compare in tcp_frto_enter_loss to do the wrong leading to the LOST-bit
leak.

Having LOST-bits integry ensured like done after commit
23aeeec365dcf8bc87fae44c533e50d0bb4f23cc:

[TCP] FRTO: Plug potential LOST-bit leak

won't hurt. It may still be useful in some other, possibly legimate,
scenario.
