It seems that implementation in yeah was inconsistent to what
other did as it would increase cwnd one ack earlier than the
others do.

Size benefits:

  bictcp_cong_avoid |  -36
  tcp_cong_avoid_ai |  +52
  bictcp_cong_avoid |  -34
  tcp_scalable_cong_avoid |  -36
  tcp_veno_cong_avoid |  -12
  tcp_yeah_cong_avoid |  -38

= -104 bytes total

There is no need for such check in pkts_acked because the
callback is not invoked unless at least one segment got fully
ACKed (i.e., the snd_una moved past skb's end_seq) by the
cumulative ACK's snd_una advancement.

<title>[TCP]: congestion control API pass RTT in microseconds</title>

<id>30cfd0baf0a0c4329fff1ef4b622919297969ec8</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch changes the API for the callback that is done after an ACK is
received. It solves a couple of issues:

  * Some congestion controls want higher resolution value of RTT
    (controlled by TCP_CONG_RTT_SAMPLE flag). These don't really want a ktime, but
    all compute a RTT in microseconds.

  * Other congestion control could use RTT at jiffies resolution.

To keep API consistent the units should be the same for both cases, just the
resolution should change.

None of the existing TCP congestion controls use the rtt value pased
in the ca_ops-&gt;cong_avoid interface.  Which is lucky because seq_rtt
could have been -1 when handling a duplicate ack.

Because of the current default of 100, Cubic and BIC perform very
poorly compared to standard Reno.

In the worst case, this change makes Cubic and BIC as aggressive as
Reno.  So this change should be very safe.

Do some simple changes to make congestion control API faster/cleaner.
* use ktime_t rather than timeval
* merge rtt sampling into existing ack callback
  this means one indirect call versus two per ack.
* use flags bits to store options/settings
