tcp_htcp: last_cong bug fix This patch fixes a minor bug in tcp_htcp.c which has been highlighted by Lachlan Andrew and Lawrence Stewart. Currently, the time since the last congestion event, which is stored in variable last_cong, is reset whenever there is a state change into TCP_CA_Open. This includes transitions of the type TCP_CA_Open->TCP_CA_Disorder->TCP_CA_Open which are not associated with backoff of cwnd. The patch changes last_cong to be updated only on transitions into TCP_CA_Open that occur after experiencing the congestion-related states TCP_CA_Loss, TCP_CA_Recovery, TCP_CA_CWR.
