[PATCH v2] sctp: fix the check for path failure detection

[PATCH v2] sctp: fix the check for path failure detection

[Chunbo Luo]

The transport error count should be incremented when an outstanding
HB is not acknowledged. And the path failure detection should be done
before sending out the HB.

T3-rtx timer expires also need to increment error count.

Yes, T3-rtx timer expires need to increment error count.

It is ok to increment the error count. But the path failure detection
should be done before send HB. Otherwise, an extra HB chunk will be sent
out before the transport is marked DOWN . So the changes in
net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c is also needed.

After running a few simulations with all the different patches from this thread,
what we are really after was achieved by the original patch.  Looking back over
the code history, it looks like this was try to implement the old text of
section 8.3 (prior to errata that fixed it).

We still have to send HB on an INACTIVE transport to see if it comes back, so
that comment of my was entirely wrong.  Sorry, don't know what I was thinking at
that time...

So I'll take the original patch Luo submitted.

Thanks
