/* From now on we have got in-window packets */
If 'nf_conntrack_tcp_loose' is off (the default), tcp packets that are outside of the current window are marked as INVALID. nf/iptables rulesets often drop such packets via 'ct state invalid' or similar checks. For overly delayed acks, this can be a nuisance if such 'invalid' packets are also logged. Since they are not invalid in a strict sense, just ignore them, i.e. conntrack won't extend timeout or change state so that they do not match invalid state rules anymore. This also avoids unwantend connection stalls in case conntrack considers retransmission (of data that did not reach the peer) as too old. The else branch of the conditional becomes obsolete. Next patch will reformant the now always-true if condition. The existing workaround for data that exceeds the calculated receive window is adjusted to use the 'ignore' state so that these packets do not refresh the timeout or change state other than updating ->td_end.
