[ Upstream commit 58d3aade20cdddbac6c9707ac0f3f5f8c1278b74 ]
After the blamed commit below, if the user-space application performs
window clamping when tp->rcv_wnd is 0, the TCP socket will never be
able to announce a non 0 receive window, even after completely emptying
the receive buffer and re-setting the window clamp to higher values.
Refactor tcp_set_window_clamp() to address the issue: when the user
decreases the current clamp value, set rcv_ssthresh according to the
same logic used at buffer initialization, but ensuring reserved mem
provisioning.
To avoid code duplication factor-out the relevant bits from
tcp_adjust_rcv_ssthresh() in a new helper and reuse it in the above
scenario.
When increasing the clamp value, give the rcv_ssthresh a chance to grow
according to previously implemented heuristic.

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.
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.
