Subject[PATCH 3.16 033/233] tcp: eliminate negative reordering in tcp_clean_rtx_queue
3.16.48-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh <soheil@google.com>

commit bafbb9c73241760023d8981191ddd30bb1c6dbac upstream.

tcp_ack() can call tcp_fragment() which may dededuct the
value tp->fackets_out when MSS changes. When prior_fackets
is larger than tp->fackets_out, tcp_clean_rtx_queue() can
invoke tcp_update_reordering() with negative values. This
results in absurd tp->reodering values higher than
sysctl_tcp_max_reordering.

Note that tcp_update_reordering indeeds sets tp->reordering
to min(sysctl_tcp_max_reordering, metric), but because
the comparison is signed, a negative metric always wins.

Fixes: c7caf8d3ed7a ("[TCP]: Fix reord detection due to snd_una covered holes")
