This patch is a bit of a hack. However it is worth it if you consider that
this is the only reason why we have to carry around the struct sk_buff **
pointers in netfilter.
It makes ip_defrag always return the packet that was given to it on input.
It does this by cloning the packet and replacing its original contents with
the head fragment if necessary.

This addition of lost_retrans_low to tcp_sock might be

Detection implemented with lost_retrans must work also when
fastpath is taken, yet most of the queue is skipped including
(very likely) those retransmitted skb's we're interested in.
This problem appeared when the hints got added, which removed
a need to always walk over the whole write queue head.
Therefore decicion for the lost_retrans worker loop entry must
be separated from the sacktag processing more than it was
necessary before.
It turns out to be problematic to optimize the worker loop
very heavily because ack_seqs of skb may have a number of
discontinuity points. Maybe similar approach as currently is
implemented could be attempted but that's becoming more and
more complex because the trend is towards less skb walking
in sacktag marker. Trying a simple work until all rexmitted
skbs heve been processed approach.
Maybe after(highest_sack_end_seq, tp->high_seq) checking is not
sufficiently accurate and causes entry too often in no-work-to-do
cases. Since that's not known, I've separated solution to that
from this patch.
Noticed because of report against a related problem from TAKANO
Ryousei <takano@axe-inc.co.jp>. He also provided a patch to
that part of the problem. This patch includes solution to it
(though this patch has to use somewhat different placement).
TAKANO's description and patch is available here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=119149311913288&w=2
...In short, TAKANO's problem is that end_seq the loop is using
not necessarily the largest SACK block's end_seq because the
current ACK may still have higher SACK blocks which are later
by the loop.

I was reading tcp_enter_loss while looking for Cedric's bug and
noticed bytes_acked adjustment is missing from FRTO side.
Since bytes_acked will only be used in tcp_cong_avoid, I think
it's safe to assume RTO would be spurious. During FRTO cwnd
will be not controlled by tcp_cong_avoid and if FRTO calls for
conventional recovery, cwnd is adjusted and the result of wrong
assumption is cleared from bytes_acked. If RTO was in fact
spurious, we did normal ABC already and can continue without
any additional adjustments.

This patch make processing netlink user -> kernel messages synchronious.
This change was inspired by the talk with Alexey Kuznetsov about current
netlink messages processing. He says that he was badly wrong when introduced
asynchronious user -> kernel communication.
The call netlink_unicast is the only path to send message to the kernel
netlink socket. But, unfortunately, it is also used to send data to the
user.
Before this change the user message has been attached to the socket queue
and sk->sk_data_ready was called. The process has been blocked until all
pending messages were processed. The bad thing is that this processing
may occur in the arbitrary process context.
This patch changes nlk->data_ready callback to get 1 skb and force packet
processing right in the netlink_unicast.
Kernel -> user path in netlink_unicast remains untouched.
EINTR processing for in netlink_run_queue was changed. It forces rtnl_lock
drop, but the process remains in the cycle until the message will be fully
processed. So, there is no need to use this kludges now.

Current the x->mode->output functions store the IPv6 nh pointer in the
skb network header. This is inconvenient because the network header then
has to be fixed up before the packet can leave the IPsec stack. The mac
header field is unused on output so we can use that to store this instead.
This patch does that and removes the network header fix-up in xfrm_output.
It also uses ipv6_hdr where appropriate in the x->type->output functions.
There is also a minor clean-up in esp4 to make it use the same code as
esp6 to help any subsequent effort to merge the two.
Lastly it kills two redundant skb_set_* statements in BEET that were
simply copied over from transport mode.

In case of ACK reordering, the SACK block might be valid in it's
time but is already obsoleted since we've received another kind
of confirmation about arrival of the segments through snd_una
advancement of an earlier packet.
I didn't bother to build distinguishing of valid and invalid
SACK blocks but simply made reordered SACK blocks that are too
old always not counted regardless of their "real" validity which
could be determined by using the ack field of the reordered
