Though there's little need for everything that tcp_may_send_now
does (actually, even the state had to be adjusted to pass some
checks FRTO does not want to occur), it's more robust to let it
make the decision if sending is allowed. State adjustments
needed:
- Make sure snd_cwnd limit is not hit in there
- Disable nagle (if necessary) through the frto_counter == 2

The result of check for frto_counter in argument to call for
tcp_enter_frto_loss can just be open coded, therefore there
isn't need to store the previous frto_counter past
tcp_may_send_now.

In addition, returns can then be combined.
