A following patch introduces qevents, points in qdisc algorithm where
packet can be processed by user-defined filters. Should this processing
lead to a situation where a new packet is to be enqueued on the same port,
holding the root lock would lead to deadlocks. To solve the issue, qevent
handler needs to unlock and relock the root lock when necessary.
To that end, add the root lock argument to the qdisc op enqueue, and
propagate throughout.

The variable pie_vars->accu_prob is used as an accumulator for
probability values. Since probabilty values are scaled using the
MAX_PROB macro denoting (2^64 - 1), pie_vars->accu_prob is
likely to overflow as it is of type u64.
The variable pie_vars->accu_prob_overflows counts the number of
times the variable pie_vars->accu_prob overflows.
The MAX_PROB macro needs to be equal to at least (2^39 - 1) in
order to do precise calculations without any underflow. Thus
MAX_PROB can be reduced to (2^56 - 1) without affecting the
precision in calculations drastically. Doing so will eliminate
the need for the variable pie_vars->accu_prob_overflows as the
variable pie_vars->accu_prob will never overflow.
Removing the variable pie_vars->accu_prob_overflows also reduces
the size of the structure pie_vars to exactly 64 bytes.

The bug is that we call kfree_skb(skb) and then pass "skb" to
qdisc_pkt_len(skb) on the next line, which is a use after free.
Also Cong Wang points out that it's better to delay the actual
frees until we drop the rtnl lock so we should use rtnl_kfree_skbs()
instead of kfree_skb().

Principles:
- Packets are classified on flows.
- This is a Stochastic model (as we use a hash, several flows might
be hashed to the same slot)
- Each flow has a PIE managed queue.
- Flows are linked onto two (Round Robin) lists,
so that new flows have priority on old ones.
- For a given flow, packets are not reordered.
- Drops during enqueue only.
- ECN capability is off by default.
- ECN threshold (if ECN is enabled) is at 10% by default.
- Uses timestamps to calculate queue delay by default.
Usage:
tc qdisc ... fq_pie [ limit PACKETS ] [ flows NUMBER ]
[ target TIME ] [ tupdate TIME ]
[ alpha NUMBER ] [ beta NUMBER ]
[ quantum BYTES ] [ memory_limit BYTES ]
[ ecnprob PERCENTAGE ] [ [no]ecn ]
[ [no]bytemode ] [ [no_]dq_rate_estimator ]
defaults:
limit: 10240 packets, flows: 1024
target: 15 ms, tupdate: 15 ms (in jiffies)
alpha: 1/8, beta : 5/4
quantum: device MTU, memory_limit: 32 Mb
ecnprob: 10%, ecn: off
bytemode: off, dq_rate_estimator: off
