Add a new rate control algorithm based on a PID controller. It samples the
percentage of failed frames over time, feeds the result into the controller and
uses its output to control the TX rate.

The SNMP macros use raw_smp_processor_id() in process context
which is illegal because the process may be preempted and then
migrated to another CPU.
This patch makes it use get_cpu/put_cpu to disable preemption.

While merging the IPsec output path I moved the encapsulation output
operation to the top of the loop so that it sits outside of the locked
section. Unfortunately in doing so it now sits in front of the space
check as well which could be a fatal error.
This patch rearranges the calls so that the space check happens as
the thing on the output path.
This patch also fixes an incorrect goto should the encapsulation output
fail.

Apply Eric Dumazet's jhash optimizations where applicable. Quoting Eric:
Thanks to jhash, hash value uses full 32 bits. Instead of returning
hash % size (implying a divide) we return the high 32 bits of the
(hash * size) that will give results between [0 and size-1] and same
hash distribution.
On most cpus, a multiply is less expensive than a divide, by an order
of magnitude.

This patch generalizes the (CONFIG_IP6_NF_IPTABLES || CONFIG_IP6_NF_IPTABLES_MODULE)
test done in hashlimit_init_dst() to all the xt_hashlimit module.
This permits a size reduction of "struct dsthash_dst". This saves memory and
cpu for IPV4 only hosts.

nf_nat_setup_info gets the hook number and translates that to the
manip type to perform. This is a relict from the time when one
manip per hook could exist, the exact hook number doesn't matter
anymore, its converted to the manip type. Most callers already
know what kind of NAT they want to perform, so pass the maniptype
in directly.

When terminating DSL connections for an assortment of random customers, I've
found it necessary to use iptables to clamp the MSS used for connections to
work around the various ICMP blackholes in the greater net. Unfortunately,
the current behaviour in Linux is imperfect and actually make things worse,
so I'm proposing the following: increasing the MSS in a packet can never be
a good thing, so make --set-mss only lower the MSS in a packet.
Yes, I am aware of --clamp-mss-to-pmtu, but it doesn't work for outgoing
connections from clients (ie web traffic), as it only looks at the PMTU on
the destination route, not the source of the packet (the DSL interfaces in
question have a 1442 byte MTU while the destination ethernet interface is
1500 -- there are problematic hosts which use a 1300 byte MTU). Reworking
that is probably a good idea at some point, but it's more work than this is.
