Eric Dumazet 72a3effaf6 [NET]: Size listen hash tables using backlog hint
We currently allocate a fixed size (TCP_SYNQ_HSIZE=512) slots hash table for
each LISTEN socket, regardless of various parameters (listen backlog for
example)

On x86_64, this means order-1 allocations (might fail), even for 'small'
sockets, expecting few connections. On the contrary, a huge server wanting a
backlog of 50000 is slowed down a bit because of this fixed limit.

This patch makes the sizing of listen hash table a dynamic parameter,
depending of :
- net.core.somaxconn tunable (default is 128)
- net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog tunable (default : 256, 1024 or 128)
- backlog value given by user application  (2nd parameter of listen())

For large allocations (bigger than PAGE_SIZE), we use vmalloc() instead of
kmalloc().

We still limit memory allocation with the two existing tunables (somaxconn &
tcp_max_syn_backlog). So for standard setups, this patch actually reduce RAM
usage.

* Maximum number of SYN_RECV sockets in queue per LISTEN socket.
* One SYN_RECV socket costs about 80bytes on a 32bit machine.
* It would be better to replace it with a global counter for all sockets
* but then some measure against one socket starving all other sockets
* would be needed.
*
* It was 128 by default. Experiments with real servers show, that
* it is absolutely not enough even at 100conn/sec. 256 cures most
* of problems. This value is adjusted to 128 for very small machines
* (<=32Mb of memory) and to 1024 on normal or better ones (>=256Mb).
* Note : Dont forget somaxconn that may limit backlog too.
