The commit message says the following:


This commit adds BBR (Bottleneck Bandwidth and RTT) congestion control. This
is a completely separate TCP stack (tcp_bbr.ko) that will be built only if
you add the make options WITH_EXTRA_TCP_STACKS=1 and also include the option
TCPHPTS. You can also include the RATELIMIT option if you have a NIC 
interface that
supports hardware pacing, BBR understands how to use such a feature.


So i think you need te rebuild with the following option set 
WITH_EXTRA_TCP_STACKS=1
