4 Subject: [PATCH 46/50] codel: use u16 field instead of 31bits for
7 David pointed out gcc might generate poor code with 31bit fields.
9 Using u16 is more than enough and permits a better code output.
11 Also make the code intent more readable using constants, fixed point arithmetic
12 not being trivial for everybody.
