[PATCH 1/1] DCCP: Another attempt at fixing up t_nom

[Ian McDonald <ian.mcdonald@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Calculate t_nom as per RFC3448 section 4.6. We have been making it too
complicated previously.

We do have a bit of a hack for initial ipi as we are not picking up the rtt
from initial setup. This should be tidied up in future.
