 Proportional Rate Reduction for TCP.

This patch implements Proportional Rate Reduction (PRR) for TCP.
PRR is an algorithm that determines TCP's sending rate in fast
recovery. PRR avoids excessive window reductions and aims for
the actual congestion window size at the end of recovery to be as
close as possible to the window determined by the congestion control
algorithm. PRR also improves accuracy of the amount of data sent
during loss recovery.

The patch implements the recommended flavor of PRR called PRR-SSRB
(Proportional rate reduction with slow start reduction bound) and
replaces the existing rate halving algorithm. PRR improves upon the
existing Linux fast recovery under a number of conditions including:
  1) burst losses where the losses implicitly reduce the amount of
outstanding data (pipe) below the ssthresh value selected by the
congestion control algorithm and,
  2) losses near the end of short flows where application runs out of
data to send.

As an example, with the existing rate halving implementation a single
loss event can cause a connection carrying short Web transactions to
go into the slow start mode after the recovery. This is because during
recovery Linux pulls the congestion window down to packets_in_flight+1
on every ACK. A short Web response often runs out of new data to send
and its pipe reduces to zero by the end of recovery when all its packets
are drained from the network. Subsequent HTTP responses using the same
connection will have to slow start to raise cwnd to ssthresh. PRR on
the other hand aims for the cwnd to be as close as possible to ssthresh
by the end of recovery.

 lib/decompressors: fix "no limit" output buffer length

When decompressing into memory, the output buffer length is set to some
arbitrarily high value (0x7fffffff) to indicate the output is, virtually,
unlimited in size.

The problem with this is that some platforms have their physical memory at
high physical addresses (0x80000000 or more), and that the output buffer
address and its "unlimited" length cannot be added without overflowing.
An example of this can be found in inflate_fast():

/* next_out is the output buffer address */
out = strm->next_out - OFF;
/* avail_out is the output buffer size. end will overflow if the output
 * address is >= 0x80000104 */
end = out + (strm->avail_out - 257);

This has huge consequences on the performance of kernel decompression,
since the following exit condition of inflate_fast() will be always true:

} while (in < last && out < end);

Indeed, "end" has overflowed and is now always lower than "out".  As a
result, inflate_fast() will return after processing one single byte of
input data, and will thus need to be called an unreasonably high number of
times.  This probably went unnoticed because kernel decompression is fast
enough even with this issue.

Nonetheless, adjusting the output buffer length in such a way that the
above pointer arithmetic never overflows results in a kernel decompression
that is about 3 times faster on affected machines.

Speed up console framebuffer imageblit function

Especially on platforms with a slower CPU but a relatively high
framebuffer fill bandwidth, like current ARM devices, the existing
console monochrome imageblit function used to draw console text is
suboptimal for common pixel depths such as 16bpp and 32bpp. The existing
code is quite general and can deal with several pixel depths. By creating
special case functions for 16bpp and 32bpp, by far the most common pixel
formats used on modern systems, a significant speed-up is attained
which can be readily felt on ARM-based devices like the Raspberry Pi
and the Allwinner platform, but should help any platform using the
fb layer.

The special case functions allow constant folding, eliminating a number
of instructions including divide operations, and allow the use of an
unrolled loop, eliminating instructions with a variable shift size,
reducing source memory access instructions, and eliminating excessive
branching. These unrolled loops also allow much better code optimization
by the C compiler. The code that selects which optimized variant is used
is also simplified, eliminating integer divide instructions.

The speed-up, measured by timing 'cat file.txt' in the console, varies
between 40% and 70%, when testing on the Raspberry Pi and Allwinner
ARM-based platforms, depending on font size and the pixel depth, with
the greater benefit for 32bpp.
