tipc: simplify connection congestion handling
As a consequence of the recently introduced serialized access to the socket in commit 8d94168a761819d10252bab1f8de6d7b202c3baa ("tipc: same receive code path for connection protocol and data messages") we can make a number of simplifications in the detection and handling of connection congestion situations. - We don't need to keep two counters, one for sent messages and one for acked messages. There is no longer any risk for races between acknowledge messages arriving in BH and data message sending running in user context. So we merge this into one counter, 'sent_unacked', which is incremented at sending and subtracted from at acknowledge reception. - We don't need to set the 'congested' field in tipc_port to true before we sent the message, and clear it when sending is successful. (As a matter of fact, it was never necessary; the field was set in link_schedule_port() before any wakeup could arrive anyway.) - We keep the conditions for link congestion and connection connection congestion separated. There would otherwise be a risk that an arriving acknowledge message may wake up a user sleeping because of link congestion. - We can simplify reception of acknowledge messages. We also make some cosmetic/structural changes: - We rename the 'congested' field to the more correct 'link_cong´. - We rename 'conn_unacked' to 'rcv_unacked' - We move the above mentioned fields from struct tipc_port to struct tipc_sock.
