[NET_SCHED]: Fix endless loops caused by inaccurate qlen counters (part 1)
There are multiple problems related to qlen adjustment that can lead
to an upper qdisc getting out of sync with the real number of packets
queued, leading to endless dequeueing attempts by the upper layer code.
All qdiscs must maintain an accurate q.qlen counter. There are basically
two groups of operations affecting the qlen: operations that propagate
down the tree (enqueue, dequeue, requeue, drop, reset) beginning at the
root qdisc and operations only affecting a subtree or single qdisc
(change, graft, delete class). Since qlen changes during operations from
the second group don't propagate to ancestor qdiscs, their qlen values
become desynchronized.
This patch adds a function to propagate qlen changes up the qdisc tree,
optionally calling a callback function to perform qdisc-internal
maintenance when the child qdisc becomes empty. The follow-up patches
will convert all qdiscs to use this function where necessary.

The NAT handling of the SIP helper has a few problems:
- Request headers are only mangled in the reply direction, From/To headers

the authentication domain is the IP address
- Contact headers in responses are only mangled for REGISTER responses
- Headers may be mangled even though they contain addresses not
participating in the connection, like alternative addresses
- Packets are droppen when domain names are used where the helper expects
IP addresses
This patch takes a different approach, instead of fixed rules what field
to mangle to what content, it adds symetric mapping of From/To/Via/Contact
headers, which allows to deal properly with echoed addresses in responses
and foreign addresses not belonging to the connection.

2) As a consequence, it removes an now unnecessary test with regard to `len > 0'
in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent: that condition is always true, since
* negative packet lengths are avoided
* ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet flags an error whenever the payload length is 0.
As a consequence, ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent is never called as all errors
returned by ccid_hc_tx_send_packet are caught in dccp_write_xmit
3) Removes the third argument of ccid_hc_tx_send_packet (the `len' parameter),

[DCCP] ccid3: Larger initial windows
This implements the larger-initial-windows feature for CCID 3, as described in
section 5 of RFC 4342. When the first feedback packet arrives, the sender can
send up to 2..4 packets per RTT, instead of just one.
The patch further
* reduces the number of timestamping calls by passing the timestamp value
(which is computed in one of the calling functions anyway) as argument
* renames one constant with a very long name into one which is shorter and
resembles the one in RFC 3448 (t_mbi)
* simplifies some of the min_t/max_t cases where both `x', `y' have the same
type
Commiter note: renamed TFRC_t_mbi to TFRC_T_MBI, to follow Linux coding style.

* makes some trivial changes (updates of comments);
* performs a small optimisation by exploiting that the feedback timeout
uses the value of t_ipi. The way it is done is safe, because the timeouts
appear after the changes to t_ipi, ensuring that up-to-date values are used;
* in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv, moves the t_rto statement closer to the calculation
of the next_tmout. This makes the code clearer to read and is also safe, since
t_rto is not updated until the next call of ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv, and is not
read by the functions called via ccid_wait_for_ccid();
* removes a `max' statement in sk_reset_timer, this is not needed since the timeout
value is always greater than 1E6 microseconds.

[UDP(-Lite)]: consolidate v4 and v6 get|setsockopt code
This patch consolidates set/getsockopt code between UDP(-Lite) v4 and 6. The
justification is that UDP(-Lite) is a transport-layer protocol and therefore
the socket option code (at least in theory) should be AF-independent.
Furthermore, there is the following code reduplication:
* do_udp{,v6}_getsockopt is 100% identical between v4 and v6
* do_udp{,v6}_setsockopt is identical up to the following differerence
--v4 in contrast to v4 additionally allows the experimental encapsulation
types UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP and UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP_NON_IKE
--the remainder is identical between v4 and v6
I believe that this difference is of little relevance.
The advantages in not duplicating twice almost completely identical code.
The patch further simplifies the interface of udp{,v6}_push_pending_frames,
since for the second argument (struct udp_sock *up) it always holds that
up = udp_sk(sk); where sk is the first function argument.

The function is only called on Data and DataAck packets and returns a negative
result on zero-sized messages. This is a reasonable policy since CCID 3 is a
congestion-control module and congestion control on zero-sized Data(Ack)
packets is in a way pathological.
The patch uses a more suitable error code for this case, it returns the Posix.1
code `EBADMSG' ("Not a data message") instead of `ENOTCONN'.
As a result of ignoring zero-sized packets, a the condition for a warning
"First packet is data" in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent is always satisfied; this
message has been removed since it will always be printed.

[DCCP] ccid3: Simplify control flow in the calculation of t_ipi
This patch performs a simplifying (performance) optimisation:
In each call of the inline function ccid3_calc_new_t_ipi(), the state is
tested against TFRC_SSTATE_NO_FBACK. This is expensive when the function
is called very often. A simpler solution, implemented by this patch, is
to adapt the control flow.

Commiter note:
This was split from Andrea's original patch, in the process I changed the type
of the ackvec index fields to u16 instead of to int and haven't folded
dccp_ackvec_parse with dccp_ackvec_check_rcv_ackno.
Next patch will actually do the insertion of more than one ackvec per packet,
using, initially, up to a max of 2 ackvecs as per Andrea's original patch, then
I'll work on support for larger ackvecs, be it using a sysctl or using
setsockopt.
