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);
