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.
