net: sctp: improve timer slack calculation for transport HBs
RFC4960, section 8.3 says:
On an idle destination address that is allowed to heartbeat,
it is recommended that a HEARTBEAT chunk is sent once per RTO
of that destination address plus the protocol parameter
'HB.interval', with jittering of +/- 50% of the RTO value,
and exponential backoff of the RTO if the previous HEARTBEAT
is unanswered.
Currently, we calculate jitter via sctp_jitter() function first,
and then add its result to the current RTO for the new timeout:
TMO = RTO + (RAND() % RTO) - (RTO / 2)
`------------------------^-=> sctp_jitter()
Instead, we can just simplify all this by directly calculating:
TMO = (RTO / 2) + (RAND() % RTO)
With the help of prandom_u32_max(), we don't need to open code
our own global PRNG, but can instead just make use of the per
CPU implementation of prandom with better quality numbers. Also,
we can now spare us the conditional for divide by zero check
since no div or mod operation needs to be used. Note that
prandom_u32_max() won't emit the same result as a mod operation,
but we really don't care here as we only want to have a random
number scaled into RTO interval.
Note, exponential RTO backoff is handeled elsewhere, namely in
sctp_do_8_2_transport_strike().
