Paolo Abeni 2c5ebd001d mptcp: refactor token container
Replace the radix tree with a hash table allocated
at boot time. The radix tree has some shortcoming:
a single lock is contented by all the mptcp operation,
the lookup currently use such lock, and traversing
all the items would require a lock, too.

With hash table instead we trade a little memory to
address all the above - a per bucket lock is used.

To hash the MPTCP sockets, we re-use the msk' sk_node
entry: the MPTCP sockets are never hashed by the stack.
Replace the existing hash proto callbacks with a dummy
implementation, annotating the above constraint.

Additionally refactor the token creation to code to:

- limit the number of consecutive attempts to a fixed
maximum. Hitting a hash bucket with a long chain is
considered a failed attempt

- accept() no longer can fail to token management.

- if token creation fails at connect() time, we do
fallback to TCP (before the connection was closed)

v1 -> v2:
 - fix "no newline at end of file" - Jakub

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.
