[PATCH 5.10 06/23] batman-adv: tp_meter: fix fast recovery precondition

[Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>]

commit 2b0d08f08ed3b2174f05c43089ec65f3543a025b upstream.

The fast recovery precondition checks if the recover (initialized to
BATADV_TP_FIRST_SEQ) is bigger than the received ack. But since recover is
only updated when this check is successful, it will never enter the fast
recovery mode.

According to RFC6582 Section 3.2 step 2, the check should actually be
different:

> When the third duplicate ACK is received, the TCP sender first
> checks the value of recover to see if the Cumulative
> Acknowledgment field covers more than recover

The precondition must therefore check if recover is smaller than the
received ack - basically swapping the operands of the current check.
