From: Bob Copeland <me@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The ignore_plink_timer flag is set when doing mod_timer() if the timer was not previously active. This is to avoid executing the timeout if del_timer() was subsequently called. However, del_timer() only happens if we are moving to ESTAB state or get a close frame while in HOLDING. We cannot leave HOLDING and re-enter ESTAB unless we receive a close frame (in which case ignore_plink_timer is already set) or if the timeout expires, so there actually isn't a case where this is needed on mod_timer().
