tcp: add SNMP counter for no. of duplicate segments reported by DSACK
There are two existing SNMP counters, TCPDSACKRecv and TCPDSACKOfoRecv, which are incremented depending on whether the DSACKed range is below the cumulative ACK sequence number or not. Unfortunately, these both implicitly assume each DSACK covers only one segment. This makes these counters unusable for estimating spurious retransmit rates, or real/non-spurious loss rate. This patch introduces a new SNMP counter, TCPDSACKRecvSegs, which tracks the estimated number of duplicate segments based on: (DSACKed sequence range) / MSS. This counter is usable for estimating spurious retransmit rates, or real/non-spurious loss rate.
