[Bloat] Still seeing bloat with a DOCSIS 3.1 modem

[Aaron Wood]

I recently upgraded service from 150up, 10dn Mbps to xfinity's gigabit
(with 35Mbps up) tier, and picked up a DOCSIS 3.1 modem to go with it.

Flent test results are here:

tl/dr;  1000ms of upstream bufferbloat

But it's DOCSIS 3.1, so why isn't PIE working?  Theory:  It's in DOCSIS 3.0
upstream mode based on the status LEDs.  Hopefully it will go away if I can
convince it to run in DOCSIS 3.1 mode.

At the moment, however, my WRT1900AC isn't up to the task of dealing with
these sorts of downstream rates.

So I'm looking at the apu2, which from this post:

Will certainly get most of the way there.
