Maybe both place need this check?
Check in sctp_retransmit_mark() can early indicating the retransmit chunk
is abandoned when we do retransmit and send the FORWARD TSN chunk.
And check in sctp_retransmit_mark() only miss the process when new DATA
send is coming and still have retransmit chunk.
If we received SACK, this expired chunks can also be remove to
abandoned list when we do sctp_outq_sack().
Check in sctp_outq_flush_rtx() aim to check only when new DATA is coming
and we send the retransmit chunk before the new DATA.
Just move this code to sctp_outq_flush_rtx() may have other issue. The
FORWARD TSN chunk is sent before we do sctp_outq_flush_rtx(), so the
retransmit chunk will remain in abandoned list until next rtx timeout or
received SACK. If all of the DATA chunks are abandoned, nothing will be
sent in this timeout.

The outqueue does not need to send the FORWARD TSN chunk
because it does not hold an TSN. But retransmit queue need to
send the FORWARD TSN chunk.
[PATCH v2] sctp: move chunk from retransmit queue to abandoned list
If there is still data waiting to retransmit and remain in
retransmit queue, while doing the next retransmit, if the
chunk is abandoned, we should move it to abandoned list.
