Merge branch 'improve-bpf-tcp-cc-init'

Neal Cardwell says:

====================
This patch series reorganizes TCP congestion control initialization so that if
EBPF code called by tcp_init_transfer() sets the congestion control algorithm
by calling setsockopt(TCP_CONGESTION) then the TCP stack initializes the
congestion control module immediately, instead of having tcp_init_transfer()
later initialize the congestion control module.

This increases flexibility for the EBPF code that runs at connection
establishment time, and simplifies the code.

This has the following benefits:

(1) This allows CC module customizations made by the EBPF called in
    tcp_init_transfer() to persist, and not be wiped out by a later
    call to tcp_init_congestion_control() in tcp_init_transfer().

(2) Does not flip the order of EBPF and CC init, to avoid causing bugs
    for existing code upstream that depends on the current order.

(3) Does not cause 2 initializations for for CC in the case where the
    EBPF called in tcp_init_transfer() wants to set the CC to a new CC
    algorithm.

(4) Allows follow-on simplifications to the code in net/core/filter.c
    and net/ipv4/tcp_cong.c, which currently both have some complexity
    to special-case CC initialization to avoid double CC
    initialization if EBPF sets the CC.

changes in v2:

o rebase onto bpf-next

o add another follow-on simplification suggested by Martin KaFai Lau:
   "tcp: simplify tcp_set_congestion_control() load=false case"

changes in v3:

o no change in commits

o resent patch series from @gmail.com, since mail from ncardwell@google.com
  stopped being accepted at netdev@vger.kernel.org mid-way through processing
  the v2 patch series (between patches 2 and 3), confusing patchwork about
  which patches belonged to the v2 patch series
