Subject: net: sched: pie: enable timestamp based delay calculation
Patch-mainline: v5.5-rc1
Git-commit: cec2975f2b7058c42330a0f8164d94c6b7c8c446
References: bsc#1154353
RFC 8033 suggests an alternative approach to calculate the queue
delay in PIE by using a timestamp on every enqueued packet. This
patch adds an implementation of that approach and sets it as the
default method to calculate queue delay. The previous method (based
on Little's law) to calculate queue delay is set as optional.
