[NET_SCHED]: Fix endless loops caused by inaccurate qlen counters (part 1)

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.

 2) As a consequence, it removes an now unnecessary test with regard to `len > 0'

      * ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet flags an error whenever the payload length is 0.

        returned by ccid_hc_tx_send_packet are caught in dccp_write_xmit

 3) Removes the third argument of ccid_hc_tx_send_packet (the `len' parameter),

[UDP(-Lite)]: consolidate v4 and v6 get|setsockopt code

This patch consolidates set/getsockopt code between UDP(-Lite) v4 and 6. The
justification is that UDP(-Lite) is a transport-layer protocol and therefore
the socket option code (at least in theory) should be AF-independent.

Furthermore, there is the following code reduplication:
 * do_udp{,v6}_getsockopt is 100% identical between v4 and v6
 * do_udp{,v6}_setsockopt is identical up to the following differerence
--v4 in contrast to v4 additionally allows the experimental encapsulation
          types  UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP and UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP_NON_IKE
--the remainder is identical between v4 and v6
   I believe that this difference is of little relevance.

The advantages in not duplicating twice almost completely identical code.

The patch further simplifies the interface of udp{,v6}_push_pending_frames,
since for the second argument (struct udp_sock *up) it always holds that
up = udp_sk(sk); where sk is the first function argument.

[DCCP] ccid3: Simplify control flow in the calculation of t_ipi

This patch performs a simplifying (performance) optimisation:

 In each call of the inline function ccid3_calc_new_t_ipi(), the state is
 tested against TFRC_SSTATE_NO_FBACK. This is expensive when the function
 is called very often. A simpler solution, implemented by this patch, is
 to adapt the control flow.

of the ackvec index fields to u16 instead of to int and haven't folded
dccp_ackvec_parse with dccp_ackvec_check_rcv_ackno.

using, initially, up to a max of 2 ackvecs as per Andrea's original patch, then
I'll work on support for larger ackvecs, be it using a sysctl or using
