tcp: add a sysctl to config the tcp_default_init_rwnd
The default initial rwnd is hardcoded to 10. Now we allow it to be controlled via /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_default_init_rwnd which limits the values from 3 to 100 This is somewhat needed because ipv6 routes are autoconfigured by the kernel. See "An Argument for Increasing TCP's Initial Congestion Window" in https://developers.google.com/speed/articles/tcp_initcwnd_paper.pdf Change-Id: I386b2a9d62de0ebe05c1ebe1b4bd91b314af5c54 Signed-off-by: JP Abgrall <jpa@google.com> Conflicts: net/ipv4/sysctl_net_ipv4.c net/ipv4/tcp_input.c
