Changed paths: M libknet/threads_rx.c

Log Message: ----------- rx: allow links to be active faster

scenario: node A and node B

node A completes ping/pong link up process faster than B node A starts to send data to node B

old behavior: node B would unconditionally discard data packets

new behavior: node B will check internal link status to see if ping/pong link up process is in progress.

if the link is sending pings and receiving pongs, it´s safe to assume that the link will go up (since we are also receiving data from the node A). node B will speed up link up and accept data immediately.

This should address a overall init race condition when nodes startup are slighly off by enough milliseconds to cause 2 memeberships to form and see fencing fireworks.
