[PATCH v5 2/2] net: make tcp keepalive timer upper bound

[Artem Savkov <asavkov@redhat.com>]

Make sure TCP keepalive timer does not expire late. Switching to upper
bound timers means it can fire off early but in case of keepalive
tcp_keepalive_timer() handler checks elapsed time and resets the timer
if it was triggered early. This results in timer "cascading" to a
higher precision and being just a couple of milliseconds off it's
original mark.
This adds minimal overhead as keepalive timers are never re-armed and
are usually quite long.
