lguest: Adaptive timeout

Browse Source 
Since the correct timeout value varies, use a heuristic which adjusts
the timeout depending on how many packets we've seen.  This gives
slightly worse results, but doesn't need tweaking when GSO is
introduced.

500 usec	19.1887		xmit 561141 recv 1 timeout 559657
Dynamic (278)	20.1974		xmit 214510 recv 5 timeout 214491 usec 278
