This fixes a bug in the logic of the TFRC loss detection:
* new_loss_indicated() should not be called while a loss is pending;
* but the code allows this;
* thus, for two subsequent gaps in the sequence space, when loss_count
has not yet reached NDUPACK=3, the loss_count is falsely reduced to 1.
To avoid further and similar problems, all loss handling and loss detection is
now done inside tfrc_rx_hist_handle_loss(), using an appropriate routine to
track new losses.
Further changes:
----------------
* added a reminder that no RX history operations should be performed when
rx_handle_loss() has identified a (new) loss, since the function takes
care of packet reordering during loss detection;
* made tfrc_rx_hist_loss_pending() bool (thanks to an earlier suggestion
by Arnaldo);
* removed unused functions.

RFC 4340, 7.7 specifies up to 6 bytes for the NDP Count option, whereas the code
is currently limited to up to 3 bytes. This seems to be a relict of an earlier
draft version and is brought up to date by the patch.

This patch fixes the following sparse warnings:
* nested min(max()) expression:
net/dccp/ccids/ccid3.c:91:21: warning: symbol '__x' shadows an earlier one
net/dccp/ccids/ccid3.c:91:21: warning: symbol '__y' shadows an earlier one
* Declaration of function prototypes in .c instead of .h file, resulting in
"should it be static?" warnings.
* Declared "struct dccpw" static (local to dccp_probe).
* Disabled dccp_delayed_ack() - not fully removed due to RFC 4340, 11.3
("Receivers SHOULD implement delayed acknowledgement timers ...").
* Used a different local variable name to avoid
net/dccp/ackvec.c:293:13: warning: symbol 'state' shadows an earlier one
net/dccp/ackvec.c:238:33: originally declared here
* Removed unused functions `dccp_ackvector_print' and `dccp_ackvec_print'.

In commit $(825de27d9e40b3117b29a79d412b7a4b78c5d815) (from 27th May, commit
message `dccp ccid-3: Fix "t_ipi explosion" bug'), the CCID-3 window counter
computation was fixed to cope with RTTs < 4 microseconds.
Such RTTs can be found e.g. when running CCID-3 over loopback. The fix removed
a check against RTT < 4, but introduced a divide-by-zero bug.
All steady-state RTTs in DCCP are filtered using dccp_sample_rtt(), which
ensures non-zero samples. However, a zero RTT is possible on initialisation,
when there is no RTT sample from the Request/Response exchange.
The fix is to use the fallback-RTT from RFC 4340, 3.4.
This is also better than just fixing update_win_count() since it allows other
parts of the code to always assume that the RTT is non-zero during the time
that the CCID is used.

The identification of this bug is thanks to Cheng Wei and Tomasz
Grobelny.
To avoid divide-by-zero, the implementation previously ignored RTTs
smaller than 4 microseconds when performing integer division RTT/4.
When the RTT reached a value less than 4 microseconds (as observed on
loopback), this prevented the Window Counter CCVal value from
advancing. As a result, the receiver stopped sending feedback. This in
turn caused non-ending expiries of the nofeedback timer at the sender,
so that the sending rate was progressively reduced until reaching the
minimum of one packet per 64 seconds.
The patch fixes this bug by handling integer division more
intelligently. Due to consistent use of dccp_sample_rtt(),
divide-by-zero-RTT is avoided.

This implements the changes to the nofeedback timer handling suggested
in draft rfc3448bis00, section 4.4. In particular, these changes mean:
* better handling of the lossless case (p == 0)
* the timestamp for computing t_ld becomes obsolete
* much more recent document (RFC 3448 is almost 5 years old)
* concepts in rfc3448bis arose from a real, working implementation
(cf. sec. 12)

The patch makes the registration messages of CCID 2/3 a bit more
informative: instead of repeating the CCID number as currently done,
"CCID: Registered CCID 2 (ccid2)" or
"CCID: Registered CCID 3 (ccid3)",
the descriptive names of the CCID's (from RFCs) are now used:
"CCID: Registered CCID 2 (TCP-like)" and
"CCID: Registered CCID 3 (TCP-Friendly Rate Control)".
To allow spaces in the name, the slab name string has been changed to
refer to the numeric CCID identifier, using the same format as before.

This hooks up the TFRC Loss Interval database with CCID 3 packet reception.
In addition, it makes the CCID-specific computation of the first loss
interval (which requires access to all the guts of CCID3) local to ccid3.c.
The patch also fixes an omission in the DCCP code, that of a default /
fallback RTT value (defined in section 3.4 of RFC 4340 as 0.2 sec); while
at it, the upper bound of 4 seconds for an RTT sample has been reduced to
match the initial TCP RTO value of 3 seconds from[RFC 1122, 4.2.3.1].

Credit here goes to Gerrit Renker, that provided the initial implementation for
this new codebase.
I modified it just to try to make it closer to the existing API, renaming some
functions, add namespacing and fix one bug where the tfrc_rx_hist_alloc was not
freeing the allocated ring entries on the error path.
Original changeset comment from Gerrit:
-----------
This provides a new, self-contained and generic RX history service for TFRC
based protocols.
Details:
* new data structure, initialisation and cleanup routines;
* allocation of dccp_rx_hist entries local to packet_history.c,
as a service exported by the dccp_tfrc_lib module.
* interface to automatically track highest-received seqno;
* receiver-based RTT estimation (needed for instance by RFC 3448, 6.3.1);
* a generic function to test for `data packets' as per RFC 4340, sec. 7.7.

This patch was based on another made by Gerrit Renker, his changelog was:
------------------------------------------------------
The patch set migrates TFRC TX history to a singly-linked list.
The details are:
* use of a consistent naming scheme (all TFRC functions now begin with `tfrc_');
* allocation and cleanup are taken care of internally;
* provision of a lookup function, which is used by the CCID TX infrastructure
to determine the time a packet was sent (in turn used for RTT sampling);
* integration of the new interface with the present use in CCID3.
------------------------------------------------------
Simplifications I did:
. removing the tfrc_tx_hist_head that had a pointer to the list head and
another for the slabcache.
. No need for creating a slabcache for each CCID that wants to use the TFRC
tx history routines, create a single slabcache when the dccp_tfrc_lib module
init routine is called.

This patch fixes a previously undiscovered bug; the problem is in computing
the elapsed time as the time between `receiving' the packet (i.e. skb enters
CCID module) and sending feedback:
- there is no layer-processing, queueing, or delay involved,
- hence the elapsed time is in the order of 1 function call
- this is in the dimension of maximally 50..100usec
- which renders the use of elapsed time almost entirely useless.
The fix is simply to ignore such trivial amounts of elapsed time.
As a further advantage, the now useless elapsed_time field can be removed from
the socket, which reduces the socket structure by another four bytes.

This updates the CCID3 code with regard to two instances of using `MSS' in place of `s':
1. The RFC3390-based initial rate: both rfc3448bis as well as the Faster Restart
draft now consistently use `s' instead of MSS.
2. Now agrees with section 4.2 of rfc3448bis: "If the sender is ready to send data when
it does not yet have a round trip sample, the value of X is set to s bytes per
second, for segment size s [...]"

Assigning initial values of `0' is redundant when loading a new CCID structure,
since in net/dccp/ccid.c the entire CCID structure is zeroed out prior to
initialisation in ccid_new():
struct ccid {
struct ccid_operations *ccid_ops;
char ccid_priv[0];
};
// ...
if (rx) {
memset(ccid + 1, 0, ccid_ops->ccid_hc_rx_obj_size);
if (ccid->ccid_ops->ccid_hc_rx_init != NULL &&
ccid->ccid_ops->ccid_hc_rx_init(ccid, sk) != 0)
goto out_free_ccid;
} else {
memset(ccid + 1, 0, ccid_ops->ccid_hc_tx_obj_size);
/* analogous to the rx case */
}
This patch therefore removes the redundant assignments. Thanks to Arnaldo for
the inspiration.

The third parameter of dccp_sample_rtt now becomes useless and is removed.
Also combined the subtraction of the timestamp echo and the elapsed time.
This is safe, since (a) presence of timestamp echo is tested first and (b)
elapsed time is either present and non-zero or it is not set and equals 0
due to the memset in dccp_parse_options.
To avoid measuring option-processing time, the timestamp for measuring the
initial Request/Response RTT sample is taken directly when the function is
called (the Linux implementation always adds a timestamp on the Request,
so there is no loss in doing this).

This patch reduces the number of timestamps taken in the receive path
for each packet.
The ccid3_hc_tx_update_x() routine is called in
* the receive path for each CCID3-controlled packet
* for the nofeedback timer (if no feedback arrives during 4 RTT)
Currently, when there is no loss, each packet gets timestamped twice.
The patch resolves this by recycling the first timestamp taken on packet
reception for RTT sampling.
When the no_feedback_timer() is called, then the timestamp argument is
simply set to NULL - so that ccid3_hc_tx_update_x() takes care of the logic.

if p > 0 the timestamp was needed, so just leave it to ccid3_hc_tx_update_x to

ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet currently returns 0 when the time difference between
current time and t_nom is less than 1000 microseconds.
In this case the packet is sent immediately; but, unlike other packets that can
be emitted on first attempt, it will not have its window counter updated and
its options set as required. This is a bug.
Fix: Require the time difference to be at least 1000 microseconds. The
algorithm then converges: time differences > 1000 microseconds trigger the
timer in dccp_write_xmit; after timer expiry this function is tried again; when
the time difference is less than 1000, the packet will have its options added
and window counter updated as required.
