All the function did was add debug output and call the set_state method.
Move the debugging into the method and remove the function.

The bandwidth calculation as well as loss report is only done for DL TBF
so move everything related to that in there.

There is no need for the union/struct anymore. Make the variable members
of the UL/DL class.
As a result gprs_rlc_dl_window gets a reset() method because
memset(&dir.dl, 0, sizeof(dir.dl)) doesn't work anymore in reuse_tbf().

The methods create_ul_ack(), rcv_data_block_acknowledged(),
maybe_schedule_uplink_acknack() are only used for UL TBFs so make them
methods of that class instead of the base class.

These functions are only used for DL TBFs so move them.
sched_select_downlink() in src/gprs_rlcmac_sched.cpp now needs to deal
with DL TBFs instead of the base class.

This method is only userul for DL TBFs so move it. As a result
gprs_rlcmac_pdch::rcv_control_ack needs to work with dl_tbfs.

The PODS struct has a back pointer to access the actual object.
llist_pods_for_each_entry traverses the list of struct llist_pods and
makes the entry available (through the back pointer).

UL and DL tbfs are used in very separate parts and are not the same
thing so split the alloc function and use the UL/DL version throughout
the code.

Many functions only ever deal with or return a UL or a DL TBF.
Explicitly change the type to reflect which TBF is used where.

The current code keeps a reference to all tbfs in the bts and another
reference in the pdch. This allows for the possibility of both lists to
go out of sync.
This patch removes the pdch-specific list of ul and dl tbfs and uses the
lists in the bts to lookup tbfs everywhere.
Performance for going through the global list is not an issue yet. We
can optimize this later and in a better way.

The current code would only ever assign one PDCH for the initial
assignment (from CCCH). Only if reuse_tbf is called the algorithm would
actually use multiple DL PDCHs if possible.
This patch introduced a tbf attribute upgrade_to_multislot that is set
if we have multiple PDCH configured, and support multislot assignment,
but can only assign a single PDCH (alloc_algorithm_b, parameter single
is set). In this case after the assignment completes (and the MS is
listening on a PDCH) we resend a DL assignment though the PACCH and this
time we can assign multiple timeslots.
The current code does not properly distinguish between DL assignments to
reuse a tbf (after it was put in state WAIT_RELEASE) and DL assignments
for an active tbf to change the allocation of the PDCH timeslots.
This patch introduces a new variable was_releasing which remembers if
trigger_dl_ass() was called with a tbf in state WAIT_RELEASE. In that
case we have to set the CONTROL_ACK field in the download assignment.
This should allow us to send DL assignments to change PDCH TS allocation
of a tbf before we enter FLOW state.
Move functions resend_needed(), mark_for_resend(), update(),
move_window(), state(), count_unacked() out of v_b directly into the UL
window and provide a function get_state in v_b to access the v_b
elements.
The allocation in the TBF/BTS code is quite complex. In parts this
is due the assignment and requests occuring under differen circumstances.
Attempt to re-create the commono scenarios.
Remove the bogus msclass check in gprs_rlcmac_tbf::update as the
allocation code will check the ms class anyway.
Use a formula like it is used with TCP. This can help to make
decisions about if frames should be dropped or not at the time
we enqueue them.
This code will store two timeval structs in fron the of the
actual data and compute the average at the time of the dequeue.
The code has an internal optimization to only use window_size
space. This means that the caller needed to know that only half
of the size was used. Change the API to work on the BSN and do
the mapping internally. The compiler should have plenty of
opportunity to propagate the constant(s) but this has not been
verified.
