tcp_adv_win_scale default value is 2, meaning we expect a good citizen
skb to have skb->len / skb->truesize ratio of 75% (3/4)
In 2.6 kernels we (mis)accounted for typical MSS=1460 frame :
1536 + 64 + 256 = 1856 'estimated truesize', and 1856 * 3/4 = 1392.
So these skbs were considered as not bloated.
With recent truesize fixes, a typical MSS=1460 frame truesize is now the
more precise :
2048 + 256 = 2304. But 2304 * 3/4 = 1728.
So these skb are not good citizen anymore, because 1460 < 1728
(GRO can escape this problem because it build skbs with a too low
truesize.)
This also means tcp advertises a too optimistic window for a given
allocated rcvspace : When receiving frames, sk_rmem_alloc can hit
sk_rcvbuf limit and we call tcp_prune_queue()/tcp_collapse() too often,
especially when application is slow to drain its receive queue or in
case of losses (netperf is fast, scp is slow). This is a major latency
source.
We should adjust the len/truesize ratio to 50% instead of 75%
This patch :
1) changes tcp_adv_win_scale default to 1 instead of 2
2) increase tcp_rmem[2] limit from 4MB to 6MB to take into account
better truesize tracking and to allow autotuning tcp receive window to
reach same value than before. Note that same amount of kernel memory is
consumed compared to 2.6 kernels.

I just noticed after some recent updates, that the init path for the drop
monitor protocol has a minor error. drop monitor maintains a per cpu structure,
that gets initalized from a single cpu. Normally this is fine, as the protocol
isn't in use yet, but I recently made a change that causes a failed skb
allocation to reschedule itself . Given the current code, the implication is
that this workqueue reschedule will take place on the wrong cpu. If drop
monitor is used early during the boot process, its possible that two cpus will
access a single per-cpu structure in parallel, possibly leading to data
corruption.
This patch fixes the situation, by storing the cpu number that a given instance
of this per-cpu data should be accessed from. In the case of a need for a
reschedule, the cpu stored in the struct is assigned the rescheule, rather than
the currently executing cpu
Tested successfully by myself.

It stems from holding a spinlock (trace_state_lock) while attempting to register
or unregister tracepoint hooks, making in_atomic() true in this context, leading
to the warning when the tracepoint calls might_sleep() while its taking a mutex.
Since we only use the trace_state_lock to prevent trace protocol state races, as
well as hardware stat list updates on an rcu write side, we can just convert the
spinlock to a mutex to avoid this problem.

A parameter set exists for WRED mode, called wred_set, to hold the same
values for qavg and qidlestart across all VQs. The WRED mode values had
been previously held in the VQ for the default DP. After these values
were moved to wred_set, the VQ for the default DP was no longer created
automatically (so that it could be omitted on purpose, to have packets
in the default DP enqueued directly to the device without using RED).
However, gred_dump() was overlooked during that change; in WRED mode it
still reads qavg/qidlestart from the VQ for the default DP, which might
not even exist. As a result, this command sequence will cause an oops:
tc qdisc add dev $DEV handle $HANDLE parent $PARENT gred setup \
DPs 3 default 2 grio
tc qdisc change dev $DEV handle $HANDLE gred DP 0 prio 8 $RED_OPTIONS

After investigation it turns out there were two issues.
1) Phonet was not implementing network devices but was using register_pernet_device
instead of register_pernet_subsys.
This was allowing there to be cases when phonenet was not initialized and
the phonet net_generic was not set for a network namespace when network
device events were being reported on the netdevice_notifier for a network
namespace leading to the oops above.
2) phonet_exit_net was implementing a confusing and special case of handling all
network devices from going away that it was hard to see was correct, and would
only occur when the phonet module was removed.
Now that unregister_netdevice_notifier has been modified to synthesize unregistration
events for the network devices that are extant when called this confusing special
case in phonet_exit_net is no longer needed.

We already synthesize events in register_netdevice_notifier and synthesizing
events in unregister_netdevice_notifier allows to us remove the need for
special case cleanup code.
This change should be safe as it adds no new cases for existing callers
of unregiser_netdevice_notifier to handle.
