If the ping tmo is longer than the recv tmo then we could miss a window
where we were supposed to check the recv tmo. This happens because
the ping code will set the next timeout for the ping timeout, and if the
ping executes quickly there will be a long chunk of time before the
timer wakes up again.
This patch has the ping processing code kick off a recv
tmo check when getting a nop in response to our ping.

Hello Mike,
Did you already consider to submit this patch for inclusion in a
2.6.25.x stable release ? See also
Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt for the details.
James does some magic where if we mark it as a regression against a
previous kernel, when he merges it to send it upstream he will send cc
the stable kernel guys for us. It is pretty neat like some sort of
JamesBot :)
