Subject: [PATCH 4.16 086/113] libceph: un-backoff on tick when we have a authenticated session

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

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

From: Ilya Dryomov <idryomov@...il.com>

commit facb9f6eba3df4e8027301cc0e514dc582a1b366 upstream.

This means that if we do some backoff, then authenticate, and are
healthy for an extended period of time, a subsequent failure won't
leave us starting our hunting sequence with a large backoff.

Mirrors ceph.git commit d466bc6e66abba9b464b0b69687cf45c9dccf383.
