tcp: refactor F-RTO
The patch series refactor the F-RTO feature (RFC4138/5682). This is to simplify the loss recovery processing. Existing F-RTO was developed during the experimental stage (RFC4138) and has many experimental features. It takes a separate code path from the traditional timeout processing by overloading CA_Disorder instead of using CA_Loss state. This complicates CA_Disorder state handling because it's also used for handling dubious ACKs and undos. While the algorithm in the RFC does not change the congestion control, the implementation intercepts congestion control in various places (e.g., frto_cwnd in tcp_ack()). The new code implements newer F-RTO RFC5682 using CA_Loss processing path. F-RTO becomes a small extension in the timeout processing and interfaces with congestion control and Eifel undo modules. It lets congestion control (module) determines how many to send independently. F-RTO only chooses what to send in order to detect spurious retranmission. If timeout is found spurious it invokes existing Eifel undo algorithms like DSACK or TCP timestamp based detection. The first patch removes all F-RTO code except the sysctl_tcp_frto is left for the new implementation. Since CA_EVENT_FRTO is removed, TCP westwood now computes ssthresh on regular timeout CA_EVENT_LOSS event.

- next. Possible values are:
- 0 Rate halving based; a smooth and conservative response,

- 1 Very conservative response; not recommended because even
- though being valid, it interacts poorly with the rest of
- Linux TCP, halves cwnd and ssthresh immediately
- 2 Aggressive response; undoes congestion control measures
- that are now known to be unnecessary (ignoring the
- possibility of a lost retransmission that would require
- TCP to be more cautious), cwnd and ssthresh are restored
- to the values prior timeout
- Default: 0 (rate halving based)

tcp_keepalive_time - INTEGER
How often TCP sends out keepalive messages when keepalive is enabled.
Default: 2hours.

- * window (but not to or beyond highest sequence sent before RTO):

- * given in RFC4138 but can be selected separately).
- * Otherwise (basically on duplicate ACK), RTO was (likely) caused by a loss
- * and TCP falls back to conventional RTO recovery. F-RTO allows overriding
- * of Nagle, this is done using frto_counter states 2 and 3, when a new data
- * segment of any size sent during F-RTO, state 2 is upgraded to 3.
- *
- * Rationale: if the RTO was spurious, new ACKs should arrive from the
- * original window even after we transmit two new data segments.
- *
- * SACK version:
- * on first step, wait until first cumulative ACK arrives, then move to
- * the second step. In second step, the next ACK decides.
- *
- * F-RTO is implemented (mainly) in four functions:
- * - tcp_use_frto() is used to determine if TCP is can use F-RTO
- * - tcp_enter_frto() prepares TCP state on RTO if F-RTO is used, it is
- * called when tcp_use_frto() showed green light
- * - tcp_process_frto() handles incoming ACKs during F-RTO algorithm
- * - tcp_enter_frto_loss() is called if there is not enough evidence
- * to prove that the RTO is indeed spurious. It transfers the control
