Eric Dumazet c4221a8cc3 tcp: always use tcp_limit_output_bytes limitation
This partially reverts commit c73e5807e4 ("tcp: tsq: no longer use
limit_output_bytes for paced flows")

Overriding the tcp_limit_output_bytes sysctl value
for FQ enabled flows has the following problem:

It allows TCP to queue around 2 ms worth of data per flow,
defeating tcp_rcv_rtt_update() accuracy on the receiver,
forcing it to increase sk->sk_rcvbuf even if the real
RTT is around 100 us.

After this change, we keep enough packets in flight to fill
the pipe, and let receive queues small enough to get
good cache behavior (cpu caches and/or NIC driver page pools).

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.
