The algorithm counts both active and inactive connections
when checking the threshold, i.e. states before and after ESTABLISHED.
It hurts that SYN states are counted as inactive because it causes bad
scheduling even for WLC/LC schedulers. Do you see that active+inactive
sum exceeds the threshold of 150?
