I put this message in to see how often this situation happens in practice.
In your case it's correct, so the check might get relaxed a little bit.
If it bothers you you can undefine ICMP_PARANOIA in net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c.
Basically it's an added check to detect a special case of ICMP based
denial-of-service attacks. That isn't the case here though, your TCP window
just dropped to 1MSS.
