Most TCP congestion controls are using identical logic to undo
cwnd except BBR. This patch consolidates these similar functions
to the one used currently by Reno and others.

The TCP New Vegas congestion control was exporting an internal
function tcpnv_get_info which is not used by any other in tree
kernel code. Make it static.

TCP-NV (New Vegas) is a major update to TCP-Vegas.
An earlier version of NV was presented at 2010's LPC.
It is a delayed based congestion avoidance for the
data center. This version has been tested within a
10G rack where the HW RTTs are 20-50us and with
1 to 400 flows.
A description of TCP-NV, including implementation
details as well as experimental results, can be found at:
