tcp: make retransmitted SKB fit into the send window



[ Upstream commit 536a6c8e05f95e3d1118c40ae8b3022ee2d05d52 ]

current code of __tcp_retransmit_skb only check TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->seq
in send window, and TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->seq_end maybe out of send window.
If receiver has shrunk his window, and skb is out of new window,  it
should retransmit a smaller portion of the payload.

test packetdrill script:
    0 socket(..., SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 3
   +0 fcntl(3, F_GETFL) = 0x2 (flags O_RDWR)
   +0 fcntl(3, F_SETFL, O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) = 0

   +0 connect(3, ..., ...) = -1 EINPROGRESS (Operation now in progress)
   +0 > S 0:0(0)  win 65535 <mss 1460,sackOK,TS val 100 ecr 0,nop,wscale 8>
 +.05 < S. 0:0(0) ack 1 win 6000 <mss 1000,nop,nop,sackOK>
   +0 > . 1:1(0) ack 1

   +0 write(3, ..., 10000) = 10000

   +0 > . 1:2001(2000) ack 1 win 65535
   +0 > . 2001:4001(2000) ack 1 win 65535
   +0 > . 4001:6001(2000) ack 1 win 65535

 +.05 < . 1:1(0) ack 4001 win 1001

and tcpdump show:
192.168.226.67.55 > 192.0.2.1.8080: Flags [.], seq 1:2001, ack 1, win 65535, length 2000
192.168.226.67.55 > 192.0.2.1.8080: Flags [.], seq 2001:4001, ack 1, win 65535, length 2000
192.168.226.67.55 > 192.0.2.1.8080: Flags [P.], seq 4001:5001, ack 1, win 65535, length 1000
192.168.226.67.55 > 192.0.2.1.8080: Flags [.], seq 5001:6001, ack 1, win 65535, length 1000
192.0.2.1.8080 > 192.168.226.67.55: Flags [.], ack 4001, win 1001, length 0
192.168.226.67.55 > 192.0.2.1.8080: Flags [.], seq 5001:6001, ack 1, win 65535, length 1000
192.168.226.67.55 > 192.0.2.1.8080: Flags [P.], seq 4001:5001, ack 1, win 65535, length 1000

when cient retract window to 1001, send window is [4001,5002],
but TLP send 5001-6001 packet which is out of send window.
