Hi Shannon
How bad is this? Should it be backported? If so, you should send it as
a separate patch for net.

Well, it doesn't "break" anything, but it does end up initializing the
coalesce value to 0, aka turns it off. The easy work-around is for the
user to set a new value, then all is well. However, since v5.4 is
intended as an LTS, this probably should get promoted into net. If
there aren't many other comments, I'll likely turn this around tomorrow
afternoon.
