Adds support for calling sock_ops BPF program when there is a TCP state change. Two arguments are used; one for the old state and another for the new state. There is a new enum in include/uapi/linux/bpf.h that exports the TCP states that prepends BPF_ to the current TCP state names. If it is ever necessary to change the internal TCP state values (other than adding more to the end), then it will become necessary to convert from the internal TCP state value to the BPF value before calling the BPF sock_ops function. There are a set of compile checks added in tcp.c to detect if the internal and BPF values differ so we can make the necessary fixes. New op: BPF_SOCK_OPS_STATE_CB.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
