====================
RDS:TCP data structure changes for multipath support

The second installment of changes to enable multipath support in
RDS-TCP. This series implements the changes in rds-tcp so that the
rds_conn_path has a pointer to the rds_tcp_connection in cp_transport_data.
Struct rds_tcp_connection keeps track of the inet_sk per path in
t_sock. The ->sk_user_data in turn is a pointer to the rds_conn_path.
With this set of changes, rds_tcp has the needed plumbing to handle
multiple paths(socket) per rds_connection.

Merge branch 'rds-mprds-foundations'

Sowmini Varadhan says:

====================
RDS: multiple connection paths for scaling

Today RDS-over-TCP is implemented by demux-ing multiple PF_RDS sockets
between any 2 endpoints (where endpoint == [IP address, port]) over a
single TCP socket between the 2 IP addresses involved. This has the
limitation that it ends up funneling multiple RDS flows over a single
TCP flow, thus the rds/tcp connection is
(a) upper-bounded to the single-flow bandwidth,
(b) suffers from head-of-line blocking for the RDS sockets.

Better throughput (for a fixed small packet size, MTU) can be achieved
by having multiple TCP/IP flows per rds/tcp connection, i.e., multipathed
RDS (mprds). Each such TCP/IP flow constitutes a path for the rds/tcp
connection. RDS sockets will be attached to a path based on some hash
(e.g., of local address and RDS port number) and packets for that RDS
socket will be sent over the attached path using TCP to segment/reassemble
RDS datagrams on that path.

The table below, generated using a prototype that implements mprds,
shows that this is significant for scaling to 40G. Packet sizes
used were: 8K byte req, 256 byte resp. MTU: 1500. The parameters for
RDS-concurrency used below are described in the rds-stress(1) man page-
the number listed is proportional to the number of threads at which max
throughput was attained.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
RDS-concurrency Num of tx+rx K/s (iops) throughput
(-t N -d N) TCP paths
-------------------------------------------------------------------
16 1 600K - 700K 4 Gbps
28 8 5000K - 6000K 32 Gbps
-------------------------------------------------------------------

FAQ: what is the relation between mprds and mptcp?
mprds is orthogonal to mptcp. Whereas mptcp creates
sub-flows for a single TCP connection, mprds parallelizes tx/rx
at the RDS layer. MPRDS with N paths will allow N datagrams to
be sent in parallel; each path will continue to send one
datagram at a time, with sender and receiver keeping track of
the retransmit and dgram-assembly state based on the RDS header.
If desired, mptcp can additionally be used to speed up each TCP
path. That acceleration is orthogonal to the parallelization benefits
of mprds.

This patch series lays down the foundational data-structures to support
mprds in the kernel. It implements the changes to split up the
rds_connection structure into a common (to all paths) part,
and a per-path rds_conn_path. All I/O workqs are driven from
the rds_conn_path.

Note that this patchset does not (yet) actually enable multipathing
for any of the transports; all transports will continue to use a
single path with the refactored data-structures. A subsequent patchset
will add the changes to the rds-tcp module to actually use mprds
in rds-tcp.

RDS: split out connection specific state from rds_connection to rds_conn_path

In preparation for multipath RDS, split the rds_connection
structure into a base structure, and a per-path struct rds_conn_path.
The base structure tracks information and locks common to all
paths. The workqs for send/recv/shutdown etc are tracked per
rds_conn_path. Thus the workq callbacks now work with rds_conn_path.

This commit allows for one rds_conn_path per rds_connection, and will
be extended into multiple conn_paths in subsequent commits.
