Improve retransmission backoff by only backing off when we retransmit data
packets rather than when we set the lost ack timer.
To this end:
(1) In rxrpc_resend(), use rxrpc_get_rto_backoff() when setting the
retransmission timer and only tell it that we are retransmitting if we
actually have things to retransmit.
Note that it's possible for the retransmission algorithm to race with
the processing of a received ACK, so we may see no packets needing
retransmission.
(2) In rxrpc_send_data_packet(), don't bump the backoff when setting the
ack_lost_at timer, as it may then get bumped twice.
With this, when looking at one particular packet, the retransmission
intervals were seen to be 1.5ms, 2ms, 3ms, 5ms, 9ms, 17ms, 33ms, 71ms,
136ms, 264ms, 544ms, 1.088s, 2.1s, 4.2s and 8.3s.
