From: Xin Long lucien.xin@gmail.com

[ Upstream commit 52a395896a051a3d5c34fba67c324f69ec5e67c6 ]

When doing asoc reset, if the sender of the response has already sent some chunk and increased asoc->next_tsn before the duplicate request comes, the response will use the old result with an incorrect sender next_tsn.

Better than asoc->next_tsn, asoc->ctsn_ack_point can't be changed after the sender of the response has performed the asoc reset and before the peer has confirmed it, and it's value is still asoc->next_tsn original value minus 1.

This patch sets sender next_tsn for the old result with ctsn_ack_point plus 1 when processing the duplicate request, to make sure the sender next_tsn value peer gets will be always right.
