I remade the patches and attached in this mail.
In socket_timeout patch, I replaced "atoi" to "parse_int_param" and inserted spaces just after some comma.
There are a few changes about documentation for the following reason:

"communication inactivity" seems to be a little extreme.
If the communication layer is truly dead you will use keepalive.
This use case is when socket option is not available for some reason.
So it would be better "terminating the connection" in my thought.
And...

I don't think it is necessary because you can use this parameter other than that situations.
Not "i.e." but "e.g." have a few chance to be documented.
About TCP_USER_TIMEOUT patches, there are only miscellaneous changes: removing trailing spaces and making comments of
parameterslower case as you pointed out.
