Introduce methods which manipulate interesting congestion control
state such as pipe and rtt estimate. This is useful for people
wishing to monitor the variables of CCID and instrument the code
[perhaps using Kprobes]. Personally, I am a fan of
encapsulation---that justifies this change =D.

When multiple losses occur in one RTT, the window should be halved
only once [a single "congestion event"]. This is now implemented,
although not perfectly. Slightly changed the interface for changing
the cwnd: pass hctx instead of dp. This is required in order to allow
for change_cwnd to be called from _init().

Allocate more sequence state on demand. Each time a packet is sent
out by CCID2, a record of it needs to be kept. This list of records
grows proportionally to cwnd. Previously, the length of this list was
hardcored and therefore the cwnd could only grow to this value (of
128). Now, records are allocated on demand as necessary---cwnd may
grow as it wishes. The exceptional case of when memory is not
available is not handled gracefully. Perhaps, cwnd should be capped
at that point.

If not enough cwnd is available, tell the sender to check again as
soon as possible. This will increase CPU utilization (polling
frequently for cwnd) but will improve network performance. That is,
the sender will need to wait less before detecting the increase of
cwnd. A better architecture would be for the CCID to call-back (or
dequeue) from DCCP when it is able to transmit traffic -- not the
other way around as it currently occurs.

Hashing SAs by source address breaks templates with wildcards as tunnel
source since the source address used for hashing/lookup is still 0/0.
Move source address lookup to xfrm_tmpl_resolve_one() so we can use the

It does not affect either mss-sized connections (obviously) or
connections controlled by Nagle (because there is only one small
segment in flight).
The idea is to record the fact that a small segment arrives on a
connection, where one small segment has already been received and
still not-ACKed. In this case ACK is forced after tcp_recvmsg() drains
receive buffer.
In other words, it is a "soft" each-2nd-segment ACK, which is enough
to preserve ACK clock even when ABC is enabled.

This patch contains the following cleanups:
- make the following needlessly global function static:
- socket.c: sctp_apply_peer_addr_params()
- add proper prototypes for the several global functions in
include/net/sctp/sctp.h
Note that this fixes wrong prototypes for the following functions:
- sctp_snmp_proc_exit()
- sctp_eps_proc_exit()
- sctp_assocs_proc_exit()
The latter was spotted by the GNU C compiler and reported
by David Woodhouse.

iproute2 doesn't provide the NLM_F_CREATE flag when adding addresses,
it is assumed to be implied. The existing code issues a check on
said flag when the modify operation fails (likely due to ENOENT)
before continueing to create it, this leads to a hard to predict
result, therefore the NLM_F_CREATE check is removed.

By passing a Linux-generated TSO packet straight back into Linux, Xen
becomes our first LRO user :) Unfortunately, there is at least one spot
in our stack that needs to be changed to cope with this.
The receive MSS estimate is computed from the raw packet size. This is
broken if the packet is GSO/LRO. Fortunately the real MSS can be found
in gso_size so we simply need to use that if it is non-zero.
Real LRO NICs should of course set the gso_size field in future.

This patch creates one common function which is called by
udp_v4_get_port() and udp_v6_get_port(). As a result,
* duplicated code is removed
* udp_port_rover and local port lookup can now be removed from udp.h
* further savings follow since the same function will be used by UDP-Litev4
and UDP-Litev6
In contrast to the patch sent in response to Yoshifujis comments
(fixed by this variant), the code below also removes the
EXPORT_SYMBOL(udp_port_rover), since udp_port_rover can now remain
local to net/ipv4/udp.c.
