Currently, the probe timer is reused as the raise timer when PLPMTUD is in
the Search Complete state. raise_count was introduced to count how many
times the probe timer has timed out. When raise_count reaches to 30, the
raise timer handler will be triggered.
During the whole processing above, the timer keeps timing out every probe_
interval. It is a waste for the Search Complete state, as the raise timer
only needs to time out after 30 * probe_interval.
Since the raise timer and probe timer are never used at the same time, it
is no need to keep probe timer 'alive' in the Search Complete state. This
patch to introduce sctp_transport_reset_raise_timer() to start the timer
as the raise timer when entering the Search Complete state. When entering
the other states, sctp_transport_reset_probe_timer() will still be called
to reset the timer to the probe timer.
raise_count can be removed from sctp_transport as no need to count probe
timer timeout for raise timer timeout. last_rtx_chunks can be removed as
sctp_transport_reset_probe_timer() can be called in the place where asoc
rtx_data_chunks is changed.
