Since the SYN bit has to be set for the initial three-way handshake,
blindly ACK'ing isn't going to get you anything.  Except maybe ACK's
to things you shouldn't be ACK'ing in the first place.

On a general note, ACK'ing in the interrupt handler is about the
most stupid thing you can possibly do, and it's not going to be any
faster.
