We fix a very real starvation problem that may occur when the link
level runs into send buffer congestion. At the same time we make the
interaction between the socket and link layer simpler and more
consistent.
v2: - Simplified link congestion check to only check against own
importance lim
Ying, Partha,
It would be very nice I could get "acked" or "reviewed" on this so I can send
it to David before net-next closes.

Hi Jon,
With your patches, I get the following crash when loading the tipc
module. Leaving home now, so couldnt investigate further.
[ 58.201114] tipc: Started in single node mode
[ 58.212991] Started in network mode
[ 58.213796] Own node address <1.1.1>, network identity 4711
[ 58.23841
Weird. Looks like a corrupted incoming buffer directly at startup,
before any of my new code is active. Is this repeatable?

Hi Jon,
Sorry for the delay, could not work due to sick child.
The crash occurs due to the last commit:
"tipc: reduce risk of user starvation during link congestion"
I examined the crash today, the crash due to array out of bounds for
skb->cb[48].
The max size allowed for the callback area is 4
