tcp: tsq: fix nonagle handling
Commit 46d3ceabd8d9 ("tcp: TCP Small Queues") introduced a possible regression for applications using TCP_NODELAY. If TCP session is throttled because of tsq, we should consult tp->nonagle when TX completion is done and allow us to send additional segment, especially if this segment is not a full MSS. Otherwise this segment is sent after an RTO. [edumazet] : Cooked the changelog, added another fix about testing sk_wmem_alloc twice because TX completion can happen right before setting TSQ_THROTTLED bit. This problem is particularly visible with recent auto corking, but might also be triggered with low tcp_limit_output_bytes values or NIC drivers delaying TX completion by hundred of usec, and very low rtt. Thomas Glanzmann for example reported an iscsi regression, caused by tcp auto corking making this bug quite visible.
