sch_sfq: avoid giving spurious NET_XMIT_CN signals
While chasing a possible net_sched bug, I found that IP fragments have litle chance to pass a congestioned SFQ qdisc : - Say SFQ qdisc is full because one flow is non responsive. - ip_fragment() wants to send two fragments belonging to an idle flow. - sfq_enqueue() queues first packet, but see queue limit reached : - sfq_enqueue() drops one packet from 'big consumer', and returns NET_XMIT_CN. - ip_fragment() cancel remaining fragments. This patch restores fairness, making sure we return NET_XMIT_CN only if we dropped a packet from the same flow.
