Subject: rxrpc: Fix the reception of a reply packet before data transmission

From: David Howells <dhowells at redhat.com>

commit a58e33405acd2584e730c1da72635f822ada6b49 upstream.

Fix rxrpc_receiving_reply() to handle the reception of an apparent reply
DATA packet before rxrpc has had a chance to send any request DATA packets
on a client call by checking to see if the call has been exposed yet by
sending the first packet.

Without this, rxrpc_rotate_tx_window() might oops.

Also fix rxrpc_rotate_tx_window() to handle the Tx queue being empty by
changing the do...while loop into a while loop, just in case a call is
abnormally terminated by an early reply before the last request packet is
transmitted.
