net: sched: pie: add derandomization mechanism
Random dropping of packets to achieve latency control may
introduce outlier situations where packets are dropped too
close to each other or too far from each other. This can
cause the real drop percentage to temporarily deviate from
the intended drop probability. In certain scenarios, such
as a small number of simultaneous TCP flows, these
deviations can cause significant deviations in link
utilization and queuing latency.
RFC 8033 suggests using a derandomization mechanism to avoid
these deviations.
