2022-10-28	tcp: add u32 counter in tcp_sock and an SNMP counter for PLB	Mubashir Adnan Qureshi
	A u32 counter is added to tcp_sock for counting the number of PLB triggered rehashes for a TCP connection. An SNMP counter is also added to count overall PLB triggered rehash events for a host. These counters are hooked up to PLB implementation for DCTCP. TCP_NLA_REHASH is added to SCM_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS that reports the rehash attempts triggered due to PLB or timeouts. This gives a historical view of sustained congestion or timeouts experienced by the TCP connection.

2022-10-28	tcp: add PLB functionality for TCP	Mubashir Adnan Qureshi
	Congestion control algorithms track PLB state and cause the connection to trigger a path change when either of the 2 conditions is satisfied: - No packets are in flight and (# consecutive congested rounds >= sysctl_tcp_plb_idle_rehash_rounds) - (# consecutive congested rounds >= sysctl_tcp_plb_rehash_rounds) A round (RTT) is marked as congested when congestion signal (ECN ce_ratio) over an RTT is greater than sysctl_tcp_plb_cong_thresh. In the event of RTO, PLB (via tcp_write_timeout()) triggers a path change and disables congestion-triggered path changes for random time between (sysctl_tcp_plb_suspend_rto_sec, 2*sysctl_tcp_plb_suspend_rto_sec) to avoid hopping onto the "connectivity blackhole". RTO-triggered path changes can still happen during this cool-off period.
