rds: tcp: send handshake ping-probe from passive endpoint
The RDS handshake ping probe added by commit 5916e2c1554f
("RDS: TCP: Enable multipath RDS for TCP") is sent from rds_sendmsg()
before the first data packet is sent to a peer. If the conversation
is not bidirectional (i.e., one side is always passive and never
invokes rds_sendmsg()) and the passive side restarts its rds_tcp
module, a new HS ping probe needs to be sent, so that the number
of paths can be re-established.
This patch achieves that by sending a HS ping probe from
rds_tcp_accept_one() when c_npaths is 0 (i.e., we have not done
a handshake probe with this peer yet).
