tcp_read_sock() currently assumes that the recv_actor() only returns
number of bytes copied. For network splice receive, we may have to
return an error in some cases. So allow the actor to return a negative
error value.

ip_vs currently fails to reset its ip_vs_sync_state variable if the
sync thread fails to start properly.  The result is that the kernel
will report a running daemon when their actuall is none.

If you issue the following commands:

1. ipvsadm --start-daemon master --mcast-interface bla
2. ipvsadm -L --daemon
3. ipvsadm --stop-daemon master

Assuming that bla is not an actual interface, step 2 should return no
data, but instead returns:

$ ipvsadm -L --daemon
master sync daemon (mcast=bla, syncid=0)

Commit 6f74651ae626ec672028587bc700538076dfbefb is found guilty
of breaking DSACK counting, which should be done only for the
SACK block reported by the DSACK instead of every SACK block
that is received along with DSACK information.

Commit 164891aadf1721fca4dce473bb0e0998181537c6 broke RTT
sampling of congestion control modules. Inaccurate timestamps
could be fed to them without providing any way for them to
identify such cases. Previously RTT sampler was called only if
FLAG_RETRANS_DATA_ACKED was not set filtering inaccurate
timestamps nicely. In addition, the new behavior could give an
invalid timestamp (zero) to RTT sampler if only skbs with
TCPCB_RETRANS were ACKed. This solves both problems.

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.

Without FRTO, the tcp_try_to_open is never called with
lost_out > 0 (see tcp_time_to_recover). However, when FRTO is
enabled, the !tp->lost condition is not used until end of FRTO
because that way TCP avoids premature entry to fast recovery
during FRTO.

IPv4 options are not very well aligned within the packet and the
format of a CIPSO option is even worse.  The result is that the CIPSO
engine in the kernel does a few unaligned accesses when parsing and
validating incoming packets with CIPSO options attached which generate
error messages on certain alignment sensitive platforms.  This patch
fixes this by marking these unaligned accesses with the
get_unaliagned() macro.

The current NetLabel code has some redundant APIs which allow both
"struct socket" and "struct sock" types to be used; this may have made
sense at some point but it is wasteful now.  Remove the functions that
operate on sockets and convert the callers.  Not only does this make
the code smaller and more consistent but it pushes the locking burden
up to the caller which can be more intelligent about the locks.  Also,
perform the same conversion (socket to sock) on the SELinux/NetLabel
glue code where it make sense.
