freeing the allocated ring entries on the error path.
Original changeset comment from Gerrit:
-----------
This provides a new, self-contained and generic RX history service for TFRC
based protocols.
Details:
* new data structure, initialisation and cleanup routines;
* allocation of dccp_rx_hist entries local to packet_history.c,
as a service exported by the dccp_tfrc_lib module.
* interface to automatically track highest-received seqno;
* receiver-based RTT estimation (needed for instance by RFC 3448, 6.3.1);
* a generic function to test for `data packets' as per RFC 4340, sec. 7.7.

The previous move of the the UDP inDatagrams counter caused each

This patch fixes this by adding a bit to sk_buff to record whether
this packet has already been seen through skb_recv_datagram. We
then only increment the counter when the packet is seen for the
first time.
The only dodgy part is the fact that skb_recv_datagram doesn't have
a good way of returning this new bit of information. So I've added
a new function __skb_recv_datagram that does return this and made

[NETFILTER]: x_tables: add rateest match
Add rate estimator match. The rate estimator match can match on
estimated rates by the RATEEST target. It supports matching on
absolute bps/pps values, comparing two rate estimators and matching
on the difference between two rate estimators.
This is what I use to route outgoing data connections from a FTP
server over two lines based on the available bandwidth:

[NETFILTER]: x_tables: add RATEEST target
Add new rate estimator target (using gen_estimator). In combination with
the rateest match (next patch) this can be used for load-based multipath
routing.

[NETFILTER]: IPv6 capable xt_TOS v1 target
Extends the xt_DSCP target by xt_TOS v1 to add support for selectively
setting and flipping any bit in the IPv4 TOS and IPv6 Priority fields.
(ipt_TOS and xt_DSCP only accepted a limited range of possible
values.)

[NETFILTER]: Merge ipt_TOS into xt_DSCP
Merge ipt_TOS into xt_DSCP.
Merge ipt_TOS (tos v0 target) into xt_DSCP. They both modify the same
field in the IPv4 header, so it seems reasonable to keep them in one
piece. This is part two of the implicit 4-patch series to move tos to
xtables and extend it by IPv6.

[NETFILTER]: ipt_addrtype: limit address type checking to an interface
Addrtype match has a new revision (1), which lets address type checking
limited to the interface the current packet belongs to. Either incoming
or outgoing interface can be used depending on the current hook. In the
FORWARD hook two maches should be used if both interfaces have to be checked.
The new structure is ipt_addrtype_info_v1.
Revision 0 lets older userspace programs use the match as earlier.
ipt_addrtype_info is used.
