These are full of unresolved problems, mainly that conversions don't
work 1-1 from hrtimers to tasklet_hrtimers because unlike hrtimers
tasklets can't be killed from softirq context.

And when a qdisc gets reset, that's exactly what we need to do here.

We'll work this out in the net-next-2.6 tree and if warranted we'll
backport that work to -stable.

This reverts the following 3 changesets:

a2cb6a4dd470d7a64255a10b843b0d188416b78f
("pkt_sched: Fix bogon in tasklet_hrtimer changes.")

38acce2d7983632100a9ff3fd20295f6e34074a8
("pkt_sched: Convert CBQ to tasklet_hrtimer.")

ee5f9757ea17759e1ce5503bdae2b07e48e32af9
("pkt_sched: Convert qdisc_watchdog to tasklet_hrtimer")

<title>net: sk_free() should be allowed right after sk_alloc()</title>

<content type='text'>
After commit 2b85a34e911bf483c27cfdd124aeb1605145dc80
(net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx)
sk_free() frees socks conditionally and depends
on sk_wmem_alloc being set e.g. in sock_init_data(). But in some
cases sk_free() is called earlier, usually after other alloc errors.

Fix is to move sk_wmem_alloc initialization from sock_init_data()
to sk_alloc() itself.

This patch fixes the bug that was reported in
  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14053

If we're in the case where we need to force a reencode and then resend of
the RPC request, due to xprt_transmit failing with a networking error, then
we _must_ retransmit the entire request.
