the stock kernel actually ships tcp_veno.
this is how to set it up:

# echo tcp_veno > /etc/modules-load.d/tcp_veno.conf
# echo net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control = veno > /etc/sysctl.d/tcp_veno.conf

I'm trying it for my laptop right now. Nothing out of the ordinary
happened, I haven't tested the throughput since, but it's working
fine.

cheers!
