Yuchung Cheng 15bdd5686c tcp: always ACK immediately on hole repairs
RFC 5681 sec 4.2:
  To provide feedback to senders recovering from losses, the receiver
  SHOULD send an immediate ACK when it receives a data segment that
  fills in all or part of a gap in the sequence space.

When a gap is partially filled, __tcp_ack_snd_check already checks
the out-of-order queue and correctly send an immediate ACK. However
when a gap is fully filled, the previous implementation only resets
pingpong mode which does not guarantee an immediate ACK because the
quick ACK counter may be zero. This patch addresses this issue by
marking the one-time immediate ACK flag instead.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

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.
