Base on Ilpo's patch about documenting tcp_max_ssthresh.
(see http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=117950581307310&w=2)

According to errata of RFC3742, fix the number of segments increased
during RTT time.

Just to state the occasion to use this parameter, But
about how to set parameter value, maybe some others can do it.

There was some confusion at LCA as to why the sysctl tcp_ecn took one
of three values when it was documented as a Boolean.  This patch fixes
the documentation.

tcp_win_from_space() does the following:

      if (sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale <= 0)
              return space >> (-sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale);
      else
              return space - (space >> sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale);

"space" is int.

As per C99 6.5.7 (3) shifting int for 32 or more bits is
undefined behaviour.

Indeed, if sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale is exactly 32,
space >> 32 equals space and function returns 0.

Which means we busyloop in tcp_fixup_rcvbuf().

Restrict net.ipv4.tcp_adv_win_scale to [-31, 31].

Fix https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20312

Steps to reproduce:

      echo 32 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_adv_win_scale
      wget www.kernel.org
      [softlockup]

This patch helps clarify documentation for
net.ipv4.igmp_max_memberships by providing a formula for
calculating the maximum number of multicast groups that can be
subscribed to, plus defining the theoretical limit.

This option causes a gratuitous ARP request, not a reply as the documentation
