mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.3.0 commit 3256a2d6ab1f71f9a1bd2d7f6f18eb8108c48d17 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I4AFRJ?from=project-issue CVE: NA
---------------------------------------------------------------
tcp: adjust rto_base in retransmits_timed_out() The cited commit exposed an old retransmits_timed_out() bug which assumed it could call tcp_model_timeout() with TCP_RTO_MIN as rto_base for all states.
But flows in SYN_SENT or SYN_RECV state uses a different RTO base (1 sec instead of 200 ms, unless BPF choses another value)
This caused a reduction of SYN retransmits from 6 to 4 with the default /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_syn_retries value.

Hi jiazhenyuan, The original commit 3256a2d6ab1f relay on commits 01a523b07161, 7ae189759cc4 and 9efdda4e3abe. The commits 7ae189759cc4 and 9efdda4e3abe solve the problems which are valuable. I think it is better to make a patchset including above commits to solve the problem. And, that can let openeuler codes has less difference with linux-stable as possible.
Thank you!
