Undo based on TCP timestamps should only happen on ACKs that advance
SND_UNA, according to the Eifel algorithm in RFC 3522:
Section 3.2:
(4) If the value of the Timestamp Echo Reply field of the
acceptable ACK's Timestamps option is smaller than the
value of RetransmitTS, then proceed to step (5),
Section Terminology:
We use the term 'acceptable ACK' as defined in [RFC793]. That is an
ACK that acknowledges previously unacknowledged data.
This is because upon receiving an out-of-order packet, the receiver
returns the last timestamp that advances RCV_NXT, not the current
timestamp of the packet in the DUPACK. Without checking the flag,
the DUPACK will cause tcp_packet_delayed() to return true and
tcp_try_undo_loss() will revert cwnd reduction.
Note that we check the condition in CA_Recovery already by only
calling tcp_try_undo_partial() if FLAG_SND_UNA_ADVANCED is set or
tcp_try_undo_recovery() if snd_una crosses high_seq.
