rxrpc: Expedite ping response transmission
Expedite the transmission of a response to a PING ACK by sending it from sendmsg if one is pending. We're most likely to see a PING ACK during the client call Tx phase as the other side may use it to determine a number of parameters, such as the client's receive window size, the RTT and whether the client is doing slow start (similar to RFC5681). If we don't expedite it, it's left to the background processing thread to transmit. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
