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.
