rto_min should be smaller than rto_max while rto_max should be larger

Thanks Wang, also for your second patch.

Second one looks good to me, thanks for the cleanup!

I was wondering where 86400000 comes from? Looking through the git
history didn't give much clues and the RFC4960 neither. Clearly,
section 15 of RFC4960 *recommends* as initial values ...

   RTO.Initial - 3 seconds
   RTO.Min - 1 second
   RTO.Max - 60 seconds

... which we have as constants in [1] and are assigned to globals
initially in [2,3] with those recommended values. That's all good.

But still [not *directly* related to your patch though], where does
86400000 come from? I expect that's for the max SCTP heartbeat
interval or max cookie lifetime?

Sorry, I don't know 86400000 come form as well.

Hence, timer_max is used in multiple contexts for timers here,
which seems a bit confusing. If it really makes sense to have such
a huge RTO max though, then it at least needs a comment explaining
so. ;)

Wang, just a minor nitpick, I would much rather name them those
defines like ...

   SCTP_RTO_MIN_LIMIT
   SCTP_RTO_MAX_LIMIT

... just so that we have recommended and upper limit constants with
a more clear naming as obviously SCTP_ONE doesn't make much sense.

So here, I'd do something like this ...

static int one = 1;              (leaving this as is)
static int timer_max = 86400000; /* Max 1 day for HB interval, cookie life-time*/

static int rto_timer_min = SCTP_RTO_MIN_LIMIT;
static int rto_timer_max = SCTP_RTO_MAX_LIMIT;

... so that we have sack_timer_{min,max} and rto_timer_{min,max}.

Opinions, thoughts?

Agree. Your Opinions is very good.

Thanks a lot, you help me so much.  I think I should wait for the
explanation of the 86400000, then send the v6.

Regards.
Wang
