tcp: sndbuf autotuning improvements
tcp_fixup_sndbuf() is underestimating initial send buffer requirements. It was not noticed because big GSO packets were escaping the limitation, but with smaller TSO packets (or TSO/GSO/SG off), application hits sk_sndbuf before having a chance to fill enough packets in socket write queue. - initial cwnd can be bigger than 10 for specific routes - SKB_TRUESIZE() is a bit under real needs in some cases, because of power-of-two rounding in kmalloc() - Fast Recovery (RFC 5681 3.2) : Cubic needs 70% factor - Extra cushion (application might react slowly to POLLOUT) tcp_v4_conn_req_fastopen() needs to call tcp_init_metrics() before calling tcp_init_buffer_space() Then we realize tcp_new_space() should call tcp_fixup_sndbuf() instead of duplicating this stuff. Rename tcp_fixup_sndbuf() to tcp_sndbuf_expand() to be more descriptive.
