tcp: evaluate packet losses upon RTT change
RACK skips an ACK unless it advances the most recently delivered TX timestamp (rack.mstamp). Since RACK also uses the most recent RTT to decide if a packet is lost, RACK should still run the loss detection whenever the most recent RTT changes. For example, an ACK that does not advance the timestamp but triggers the cwnd undo due to reordering, would then use the most recent (higher) RTT measurement to detect further losses.
