Eric Dumazet 8dc242ad66 tcp: refine tcp_pacing_delay() for very low pacing rates
With the addition of horizon feature to sch_fq, we noticed some
suboptimal behavior of extremely low pacing rate TCP flows, especially
when TCP is not aware of a drop happening in lower stacks.

Back in commit 3f80e08f40 ("tcp: add tcp_reset_xmit_timer() helper"),
tcp_pacing_delay() was added to estimate an extra delay to add to standard
rto timers.

This patch removes the skb argument from this helper and
tcp_reset_xmit_timer() because it makes more sense to simply
consider the time at which next packet is allowed to be sent,
instead of the time of whatever packet has been sent.

This avoids arming RTO timer too soon and removes
spurious horizon drops.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
