[PATCH net-next 2/7] rxrpc: Switch to Congestion Avoidance mode at cwnd==ssthresh

From: David Howells
Date: Fri Sep 30 2016 - 17:41:55 EST


Switch to Congestion Avoidance mode at cwnd == ssthresh rather than relying
on cwnd getting incremented beyond ssthresh and the window size, the mode
being shifted and then cwnd being corrected.

We need to make sure we switch into CA mode so that we stop marking every
packet for ACK.
