[Cerowrt-devel] apu2 sqm/htb issue + a minor win for speeding up fq_codel itself

[Dave Taht]

making htb's cburst and burst parameters 64k gets the APU2  up to
where it can shape 900mbits. 3 ksoftirq handlers start getting cpu
time, and we end up 54% idle to achiefe that.

I should really go around running my own old code. I was deeply
involved in sqm when we still had to run at sub 200mbit levels. since
then it's been
mostly tbf (burst 64k) + fq_codel or cake, and me ignoring various bug
reports about it not scaling well enough at higher rates.
