-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: John Heffner <johnwheffner@xxxxxxxxx>

[ upstream commit: ce447eb91409225f8a488f6b7b2a1bdf7b2d884f ]

This changes the logic in tcp_is_cwnd_limited() so that cwnd may grow
up to tcp_max_burst() even when sk_can_gso() is false, or when
sysctl_tcp_tso_win_divisor != 0.
