tcp: avoid unconditional congestion window undo on SYN retransmit
Previously if an active TCP open has SYN timeout, it always undo the
cwnd upon receiving the SYNACK. This is because tcp_clean_rtx_queue
would reset tp->retrans_stamp when SYN is acked, which fools then
tcp_try_undo_loss and tcp_packet_delayed. Addressing this issue is
required to properly support undo for spurious SYN timeout.
Fixing this is tricky -- for active TCP open tp->retrans_stamp
records the time when the handshake starts, not the first
retransmission time as the name may suggest. The simplest fix is
for tcp_packet_delayed to ensure it is valid before comparing with
other timestamp.
One side effect of this change is active TCP Fast Open that incurred
SYN timeout. Upon receiving a SYN-ACK that only acknowledged
the SYN, it would immediately retransmit unacknowledged data in
tcp_ack() because the data is marked lost after SYN timeout. But
the retransmission would have an incorrect ack sequence number since
rcv_nxt has not been updated yet tcp_rcv_synsent_state_process(), the
retransmission needs to properly handed by tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack()
like before.
