Subject: [TCP]: Do not purge sk_forward_alloc entirely in tcp_delack_timer().
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9993e7d313e80bdc005d09c7def91903e0068f07;p=linux-beck.git

[TCP]: Do not purge sk_forward_alloc entirely in tcp_delack_timer().

Otherwise we beat heavily on the global tcp_memory atomics
when all of the sockets in the system are slowly sending
perioding packet clumps.

Noticed and suggested by Eric Dumazet.
