Merge branch 'tcp_cubic-fix-spurious-HYSTART_DELAY-on-RTT-decrease'



Neal Cardwell says:

====================
tcp_cubic: fix spurious HYSTART_DELAY on RTT decrease

This series fixes a long-standing bug in the TCP CUBIC
HYSTART_DELAY mechanim recently reported by Mirja Kuehlewind. The
code can cause a spurious exit of slow start in some particular
cases: upon an RTT decrease that happens on the 9th or later ACK
in a round trip. This series fixes the original Hystart code and
also the recent BPF implementation.
