[RFC]: tfrc_tx_hist_rtt

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>]

Hi Gerrit,

	Coming back to hiding the TX history data structures, take a
look at what I'm commiting to my tree:

1. struct tfrc_tx_hist_entry is completely hidden in
   net/dccp/ccids/lib/packet_history.c
2. I found tfrc_tx_hist_when confusing and returning two results, if it
   had found the ackno in the history and the timestamp, so I introduced
   tfrc_tx_hist_rtt instead, that returns 0 if the ackno was not found.

Does this looks reasonable?
