When a second link to a destination comes up, some sender sockets will steer their subsequent traffic through the new link. In order to guarantee preserved packet order and cardinality for those sockets, we tunnel a duplicate of the old link's send queue through the new link before we open it for regular traffic. The last arriving packet copy, on whichever link, will be dropped at the receiving end based on the original sequence number, to ensure that only one copy is delivered to the end receiver. In this commit, we change the algorithm for receiving DUPLICATE_MSG packets, at the same time delegating it to a new subfunction, tipc_link_dup_rcv(). Instead of returning an extracted inner packet to the packet reception loop in tipc_rcv(), we just add it to the receiving (new) link's deferred packet queue. The packet will then be processed by that link when it receives its first non-tunneled packet, i.e., at latest when the changeover procedure is finished. Because tipc_link_tunnel_rcv()/tipc_link_dup_rcv() now is consuming all packets of type DUPLICATE_MSG, the calling tipc_rcv() function can omit testing for this. This in turn means that the current conditional jump to the label 'protocol_check' becomes redundant, and we can remove that label.
