tcp_yeah: don't set ssthresh below 2

For tcp_yeah, use an ssthresh floor of 2, the same floor used by Reno
and CUBIC, per RFC 5681 (equation 4).

tcp_yeah_ssthresh() was sometimes returning a 0 or negative ssthresh
value if the intended reduction is as big or bigger than the current
cwnd. Congestion control modules should never return a zero or
negative ssthresh. A zero ssthresh generally results in a zero cwnd,
causing the connection to stall. A negative ssthresh value will be
interpreted as a u32 and will set a target cwnd for PRR near 4
billion.

Oleksandr Natalenko reported that a system using tcp_yeah with ECN
could see a warning about a prior_cwnd of 0 in
tcp_cwnd_reduction(). Testing verified that this was due to
tcp_yeah_ssthresh() misbehaving in this way.

In the include/linux/if_vlan.h case, the type used for a local

to fix a stacked vlan bug in 'net-next'.

In drivers/vhost/net.c, Al Viro's iov_iter conversions in 'net-next'
overlapped with an endainness fix for VHOST 1.0 in 'net'.

In drivers/net/vxlan.c, vxlan_find_vni() added a 'flags' parameter
in 'net-next' whereas in 'net' there was a bug fix to pass in the
correct network namespace pointer in calls to this function.

Merge branch 'tcp_stretch_acks'

Neal Cardwell says:

====================
fix stretch ACK bugs in TCP CUBIC and Reno

This patch series fixes the TCP CUBIC and Reno congestion control
modules to properly handle stretch ACKs in their respective additive
increase modes, and in the transitions from slow start to additive
increase.

This finishes the project started by commit 9f9843a751d0a2057 ("tcp:
properly handle stretch acks in slow start"), which fixed behavior for
TCP congestion control when handling stretch ACKs in slow start mode.

Motivation: In the Jan 2015 netdev thread 'BW regression after "tcp:
refine TSO autosizing"', Eyal Perry documented a regression that Eric
Dumazet determined was caused by improper handling of TCP stretch
ACKs.

Background: LRO, GRO, delayed ACKs, and middleboxes can cause "stretch
ACKs" that cover more than the RFC-specified maximum of 2
packets. These stretch ACKs can cause serious performance shortfalls
in common congestion control algorithms, like Reno and CUBIC, which
were designed and tuned years ago with receiver hosts that were not
using LRO or GRO, and were instead ACKing every other packet.

Testing: at Google we have been using this approach for handling
stretch ACKs for CUBIC datacenter and Internet traffic for several
years, with good results.

tcp: stretch ACK fixes prep

LRO, GRO, delayed ACKs, and middleboxes can cause "stretch ACKs" that
cover more than the RFC-specified maximum of 2 packets. These stretch
ACKs can cause serious performance shortfalls in common congestion
control algorithms that were designed and tuned years ago with
receiver hosts that were not using LRO or GRO, and were instead
politely ACKing every other packet.

This patch series fixes Reno and CUBIC to handle stretch ACKs.

This patch prepares for the upcoming stretch ACK bug fix patches. It
adds an "acked" parameter to tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to allow for future
fixes to tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to correctly handle stretch ACKs, and
changes all congestion control algorithms to pass in 1 for the ACKed
count. It also changes tcp_slow_start() to return the number of packet
ACK "credits" that were not processed in slow start mode, and can be
processed by the congestion control module in additive increase mode.

In future patches we will fix tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to handle stretch
ACKs, and fix Reno and CUBIC handling of stretch ACKs in slow start
and additive increase mode.
