tcp: back retransmit_high when it over-estimated
If lost skb is sacked, we might have nothing to retransmit as high as the retransmit_high is pointing to, so place it lower to avoid unnecessary walking. This is mainly for the case where high L'ed skbs gets sacked. Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
