we're still seeing the warnings followed by crashes and it's very concerning.
We hoped that most recent Neal's patches from Sep 18 around this area may
magically fix the issue, but no. The panics are still there.
It's confirmed that net.ipv4.tcp_retrans_collapse=0 does not help
whereas net.ipv4.tcp_recovery=0 works, but obviously undesirable.
We're out of ideas on how to debug this.
