net: Add PLB functionality to TCP
This patch series adds PLB (Protective Load Balancing) to TCP and hooks
it up to DCTCP. PLB is disabled by default and can be enabled using
relevant sysctls and support from underlying CC.
PLB (Protective Load Balancing) is a host based mechanism for load
balancing across switch links. It leverages congestion signals(e.g. ECN)
from transport layer to randomly change the path of the connection
experiencing congestion. PLB changes the path of the connection by
changing the outgoing IPv6 flow label for IPv6 connections (implemented
in Linux by calling sk_rethink_txhash()). Because of this implementation
mechanism, PLB can currently only work for IPv6 traffic. For more
information, see the SIGCOMM 2022 paper:
