mds: Do not check upper limit of window size [#3100]

According to RFC1982: "Addition of a value outside the range
[0 .. (2^(SERIAL_BITS - 1) - 1)] is undefined.". Mds uses 16
bits for mds flow control, thus the maximum allowed range of
window size is 2^15 - 1 = 32767.
The 'mdstest 27 8' has randomly hit this limitation with the
counter errors that is detected in mds as belog logging:

FCTRL: [me] <-- [node:1001001, ref:2784751213],
RcvChkAck[fseq:31067, chunk:3], sndwnd[acked:31064,
send:63850, nacked:1901634], queue[size:32785],
Error[msg disordered]

The fseq should always be less then sndwnd_.send_, hence mds
should check the sender being capable of sending more message
only if D = sndwnd_.send_ - sndwnd_.acked_ < 2^15 - 1 = 32767
If a burst of message is sent, D could be > 32767, mds in this
case should notify the sender try to send again later; which
however could leads to a backward compatibility. For now mds
weaken the windown size verification, only logs a warning and
let the transmission continue.

Reviewer Checklist:
-------------------
[Submitters: make sure that your review doesn't trigger any checkmarks!]


Your checkin has not passed review because (see checked entries):

___ Your RR template is generally incomplete; it has too many blank entries
    that need proper data filled in.

___ You have failed to nominate the proper persons for review and push.

___ Your patches do not have proper short+long header

___ You have grammar/spelling in your header that is unacceptable.

___ You have exceeded a sensible line length in your headers/comments/text.

___ You have failed to put in a proper Trac Ticket # into your commits.

___ You have incorrectly put/left internal data in your comments/files
    (i.e. internal bug tracking tool IDs, product names etc)

___ You have not given any evidence of testing beyond basic build tests.
    Demonstrate some level of runtime or other sanity testing.

___ You have ^M present in some of your files. These have to be removed.

___ You have needlessly changed whitespace or added whitespace crimes
    like trailing spaces, or spaces before tabs.

___ You have mixed real technical changes with whitespace and other
    cosmetic code cleanup changes. These have to be separate commits.

___ You need to refactor your submission into logical chunks; there is
    too much content into a single commit.

___ You have extraneous garbage in your review (merge commits etc)

___ You have giant attachments which should never have been sent;
    Instead you should place your content in a public tree to be pulled.

___ You have too many commits attached to an e-mail; resend as threaded
    commits, or place in a public tree for a pull.

___ You have resent this content multiple times without a clear indication
    of what has changed between each re-send.

___ You have failed to adequately and individually address all of the
    comments and change requests that were proposed in the initial review.

___ You have a misconfigured ~/.gitconfig file (i.e. user.name, user.email etc)

___ Your computer have a badly configured date and time; confusing the
    the threaded patch review.

___ Your changes affect IPC mechanism, and you don't present any results
    for in-service upgradability test.

___ Your changes affect user manual and documentation, your patch series
    do not contain the patch that updates the Doxygen manual.
