net: sctp: dynamically enable or disable pf state

Browse Source 
As we all know, the value of pf_retrans >= max_retrans_path can
disable pf state. The variables of pf_retrans and max_retrans_path
can be changed by the userspace application.

Sometimes the user expects to disable pf state while the 2
variables are changed to enable pf state. So it is necessary to
introduce a new variable to disable pf state.

According to the suggestions from Vlad Yasevich, extra1 and extra2
are removed. The initialization of pf_enable is added.

Enable or disable pf (pf is short for potentially failed) state. A value
of pf_retrans > path_max_retrans also disables pf state. That is, one of
both pf_enable and pf_retrans > path_max_retrans can disable pf state.
Since pf_retrans and path_max_retrans can be changed by userspace
application, sometimes user expects to disable pf state by the value of
pf_retrans > path_max_retrans, but occasionally the value of pf_retrans
or path_max_retrans is changed by the user application, this pf state is
enabled. As such, it is necessary to add this to dynamically enable
and disable pf state. See:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctp-failover for
details.
