mainlining shenanigans
This patch puts some tcp cong helper functions, tcp_slow_start() and tcp_cong_avoid_ai(), into the allowlist for the bpf-tcp-cc program. A few tcp cc implementation functions are also put into the allowlist. A potential use case is the bpf-tcp-cc implementation may only want to override a subset of a tcp_congestion_ops. For others, the bpf-tcp-cc can directly call the kernel counter parts instead of re-implementing (or copy-and-pasting) them to the bpf program. They will only be available to the bpf-tcp-cc typed program. The allowlist functions are not bounded to a fixed ABI contract. When any of them has changed, the bpf-tcp-cc program has to be changed like any in-tree/out-of-tree kernel tcp-cc implementations do also.

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 Restructured Text 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.
