[NET] link_watch: Eliminate potential delay on wrap-around
When the jiffies wrap around or when the system boots up for the first time, down events can be delayed indefinitely since we no longer update linkwatch_nextevent when only urgent events are processed. This patch fixes this by setting linkwatch_nextevent when a wrap-around occurs. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
