Antoine Tenart 2aa1927570 netfilter: conntrack: revisit the gc initial rescheduling bias
The previous commit changed the way the rescheduling delay is computed
which has a side effect: the bias is now represented as much as the
other entries in the rescheduling delay which makes the logic to kick in
only with very large sets, as the initial interval is very large
(INT_MAX).

Revisit the GC initial bias to allow more frequent GC for smaller sets
while still avoiding wakeups when a machine is mostly idle. We're moving
from a large initial value to pretending we have 100 entries expiring at
the upper bound. This way only a few entries having a small timeout
won't impact much the rescheduling delay and non-idle machines will have
enough entries to lower the delay when needed. This also improves
readability as the initial bias is now linked to what is computed
instead of being an arbitrary large value.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
