From: Menglong Dong <imagedong@tencent.com>

For now, skb will be dropped when no memory, which makes client keep
retrans util timeout and it's not friendly to the users.

In this patch, we reply an ACK with zero-window in this case to update
the snd_wnd of the sender to 0. Therefore, the sender won't timeout the
connection and will probe the zero-window with the retransmits.

v2:
- send 0 rwin ACK for the receive queue empty case when necessary
- send the ACK immediately by using the ICSK_ACK_NOW flag

I think we want sk->sk_data_ready() here, to let applications drain the queue,
regardless of sk->sk_rcvlowat value.

We also want to keep this sk->sk_data_ready(sk) call.

This would suggest a different code refactoring, to avoid code duplication.
