Subject: sctp: only update outstanding_bytes for transmitted queue when doing prsctp_prune
From: Xin Long <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit d30fc5126efb0c33b7adf5966d3051db2c3d7721 ]
Now outstanding_bytes is only increased when appending chunks into one
packet and sending it at 1st time, while decreased when it is about to
move into retransmit queue. It means outstanding_bytes value is already
decreased for all chunks in retransmit queue.
However sctp_prsctp_prune_sent is a common function to check the chunks
in both transmitted and retransmit queue, it decrease outstanding_bytes
when moving a chunk into abandoned queue from either of them.
It could cause outstanding_bytes underflow, as it also decreases it's
value for the chunks in retransmit queue.
This patch fixes it by only updating outstanding_bytes for transmitted
queue when pruning queues for prsctp prio policy, the same fix is also
needed in sctp_check_transmitted.
