BUG/MEDIUM: raw-sock: Don't report connection error if something was received
In raw_sock_to_buf(), if a low-level error is reported, we no longer
immediately set an error on the connexion if something was received. This
may happen when a RST is received with data. This way, we let a chance to
the mux to process received data first instead of immediately aborting.
This patch should fix some spurious health-check failures. It is pretty hard
to observe, but with a server immediately returning the response followed by
a RST, without waiting the request, it is possible to have some health-check
errors. For instance, with the following tcploop server:
tcploop 8000 L Q W N1 A S:"HTTP/1.0 200 OK\r\n\r\n" F K
( Accept -> send response -> FIN -> Close)
we can have such strace output:

The response was received, but it is ignored because an error was reported
too. The error handling must be refactored. But it a titanic stain. Thus,
for now, a good fix is to delay the error report when something was
received. The error will be reported on the next receive, if any.
This patch should fix the issue #1863, but it must be confirmed. At least it
fixes the above example. It must be backported to 2.6. For older versions,
it must be evaluated first.
