5.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh <soheil@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 8ba3c9d1c6d75d1e6af2087278b30e17f68e1fff ]
If there was any event available on the TCP socket, tcp_poll()
will be called to retrieve all the events. In tcp_poll(), we call
sk_stream_is_writeable() which returns true as long as we are at least
one byte below notsent_lowat. This will result in quite a few
spurious EPLLOUT and frequent tiny sendmsg() calls as a result.
Similar to sk_stream_write_space(), use __sk_stream_is_writeable
with a wake value of 1, so that we set EPOLLOUT only if half the
space is available for write.
