Jon Maloy 3db0960117 tipc: fix list sorting bug in function tipc_group_update_member()
When, during a join operation, or during message transmission, a group
member needs to be added to the group's 'congested' list, we sort it
into the list in ascending order, according to its current advertised
window size. However, we miss the case when the member is already on
that list. This will have the result that the member, after the window
size has been decremented, might be at the wrong position in that list.
This again may have the effect that we during broadcast and multicast
transmissions miss the fact that a destination is not yet ready for
reception, and we end up sending anyway. From this point on, the
behavior during the remaining session is unpredictable, e.g., with
underflowing window sizes.

We now correct this bug by unconditionally removing the member from
the list before (re-)sorting it in.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
