Have tcp_schedule_loss_probe() base the TLP scheduling decision based
on when the RTO *should* fire. This is to enable the upcoming xmit
timer fix in this series, where tcp_schedule_loss_probe() cannot
assume that the last timer installed was an RTO timer (because we are
no longer doing the "rearm RTO, rearm RTO, rearm TLP" dance on every
ACK). So tcp_schedule_loss_probe() must independently figure out when
an RTO would want to fire.
In the new TLP implementation following in this series, we cannot
assume that icsk_timeout was set based on an RTO; after processing a
cumulative ACK the icsk_timeout we see can be from a previous TLP or
RTO. So we need to independently recalculate the RTO time (instead of
reading it out of icsk_timeout). Removing this dependency on the
nature of icsk_timeout makes things a little easier to reason about
anyway.
Note that the old and new code should be equivalent, since they are
both saying: "if the RTO is in the future, but at an earlier time than
the normal TLP time, then set the TLP timer to fire when the RTO would
have fired".

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
