I believe that the original code is wrong, and the change is not sufficient to fix it. The retransmit timer should be running if and only if we have sent data into the receive window and are awaiting an ACK. The persist timer should be running if and only if the retransmit timer is not running, and we have data to send that do not reasonably fit in the window. If we get an ENOBUFS when sending data, we will already be running the retransmit timer. If we drop an ACK on ENOBUFS, either we will receive more data and attempt another ACK, or the sender will time out and resend data. Either will get the connection started again. I believe lines 1552-1554 should simply be deleted.
