This series collects a few follow-up for the backlog refactor, with some
of them posing as fixes just to confuse the enemy.
Targeting net-next as the issues addressed are very old, the change
is quite invasive and, as mentioned, based on the BL refactor.
Overall this:
- introduces a tracepoint similar to tcp useful to track down the issues
addressed here
- avoid rx drop in corner case scenarios, improving tput stability and
peak tput over fast link
- refactor the rcv space and rtt estimator, overall making DRS more
correct and avoiding rcv buffer drifting to tcp_rmem[2], which in
turn makes the tput more stable and less bursty

- new patch 1/7
- old patch 2/4 has been split in 3: 3/7, 4/7 and 5/7
- refactor both the rcv space init and rtt estimator
