Using NewReno, if a sk_buff is timed out and is accounted as lost_out,
it should also be removed from the sacked_out.

This is necessary because recovery using NewReno fast retransmit could
take up to a lot RTTs and the sk_buff RTO can expire without actually
being really lost.

left_out = sacked_out + lost_out
in_flight = packets_out - left_out + retrans_out

Using NewReno without this patch, on very large network losses,
left_out becames bigger than packets_out + retrans_out (!!).

For this reason unsigned integer in_flight overflows to 2^32 - something.
