Subject: [PATCH 4.14 23/52] tcp: use current time in tcp_rcv_space_adjust()

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

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>


[ Upstream commit 8632385022f2b05a6ca0b9e0f95575865de0e2ce ]

When I switched rcv_rtt_est to high resolution timestamps, I forgot
that tp->tcp_mstamp needed to be refreshed in tcp_rcv_space_adjust()

Using an old timestamp leads to autotuning lags.

Fixes: 645f4c6f2ebd ("tcp: switch rcv_rtt_est and rcvq_space to high resolution timestamps")
