tcp_bbr: fix to zero idle_restart only upon S/ACKed data
Previously the bbr->idle_restart tracking was zeroing out the bbr->idle_restart bit upon ACKs that did not SACK or ACK anything, e.g. receiving incoming data or receiver window updates. In such situations BBR would forget that this was a restart-from-idle situation, and if the min_rtt had expired it would unnecessarily enter PROBE_RTT (even though we were actually restarting from idle but had merely forgotten that fact). The fix is simple: we need to remember we are restarting from idle until we receive a S/ACK for some data (a S/ACK for the first flight of data we send as we are restarting). This commit is a stable candidate for kernels back as far as 4.9.
