sk->sk_timer has been used for TCP keepalives. Keepalive timers are not in fast path, we want to use sk->sk_timer storage for retransmit timers, for better cache locality. Create icsk->icsk_keepalive_timer and change keepalive code to no longer use sk->sk_timer. Added space is reclaimed in the following patch. This includes changes to MPTCP, which was also using sk_timer. Alias icsk->mptcp_tout_timer and icsk->icsk_keepalive_timer for inet_sk_diag_fill() sake.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
