tcp: fix delayed acks behavior for SO_RCVLOWAT
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
We should not delay acks if there are not enough bytes
in receive queue to satisfy SO_RCVLOWAT.

Since [E]POLLIN event is not going to be generated, there is little
hope for a delayed ack to be useful.

In fact, delaying ACK prevents sender from completing
the transfer.
