I wonder *what* method it's using to determine that a connection is
alive and working?

For instance, various devices around here use a very stupid method of
testing for internet connectivity.  They're hard-coded to try to reach
one or two specific things on the internet, and chuck a hissy fit if
they can't do so.  Of course my internet service can be perfectly fine
but those remote services haven't responded for their own reasons.

And perhaps, the new kernel has less patience waiting than a prior one
before abandoning a connection.
