[DCCP] ccid3: Fix bug in calculation of send rate
The main object of this patch is the following bug:
==> In ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv, the parameters p and X_recv were updated
_after_ the send rate was calculated. This is clearly an error and is
resolved by re-ordering statements.
In addition,
* r_sample is converted from u32 to long to check whether the time difference
was negative (it would otherwise be converted to a large u32 value)
* protection against RTT=0 (this is possible) is provided in a further patch
* t_elapsed is also converted to long, to match the type of r_sample
* adds a a more debugging information regarding current send rates
* various trivial comment/documentation updates

[DCCP]: Fix BUG in retransmission delay calculation
This bug resulted in ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet returning negative
delay values, which in turn triggered silently dequeueing packets in
dccp_write_xmit. As a result, only a few out of the submitted packets made
it at all onto the network. Occasionally, when dccp_wait_for_ccid was
involved, this also triggered a bug warning since ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet
returned a negative value (which in reality was a negative delay value).
The cause for this bug lies in the comparison
if (delay >= hctx->ccid3hctx_delta)
return delay / 1000L;
The type of `delay' is `long', that of ccid3hctx_delta is `u32'. When comparing
negative long values against u32 values, the test returned `true' whenever delay
was smaller than 0 (meaning the packet was overdue to send).
The fix is by casting, subtracting, and then testing the difference with
regard to 0.
This has been tested and shown to work.

[DCCP]: Use higher RTO default for CCID3
The TFRC nofeedback timer normally expires after the maximum of 4
RTTs and twice the current send interval (RFC 3448, 4.3). On LANs
with a small RTT this can mean a high processing load and reduced
performance, since then the nofeedback timer is triggered very

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.
