Jon Paul Maloy 5a0950c272 tipc: ensure that link congestion and wakeup use same criteria
When a link is attempted woken up after congestion, it uses a different,
more generous criteria than when it was originally declared congested.
This has the effect that the link, and the sending process, sometimes
will be woken up unnecessarily, just to immediately return to congestion
when it turns out there is not not enough space in its send queue to
host the pending message. This is a waste of CPU cycles.

We now change the function link_prepare_wakeup() to use exactly the same
criteria as tipc_link_xmit(). However, since we are now excluding the
window limit from the wakeup calculation, and the current backlog limit
for the lowest level is too small to house even a single maximum-size
message, we have to expand this limit. We do this by evaluating an
alternative, minimum value during the setting of the importance limits.
