Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 0/2] minor tail loss probe improvements

This patch series enhance the tail loss probe (TLP) on some error
conditions. When TLP fails to send a probe, it will no longer
extend the RTO. When it fails to send a new packet because of
receiver window limit, it'll try to retransmit the last packet.

Yuchung Cheng (2):
  tcp: don't extend RTO on failed loss probe attempts
  tcp: TLP retransmits last if failed to send new packet
