Hello Neels Hofmeyr, Jenkins Builder,

I'd like you to reexamine a change.  Please visit

    https://gerrit.osmocom.org/819

to look at the new patch set (#7).

Fix: DL slot allocation based on direction configured

Currently number of TS for second DL TBF is less
compared to first DL TBF because PCU is considering the
combined capacity of DL and UL for TS allocation.
Since 2nd DL TBF has less DL slots compared to 2nd TBF,
there is a difference in throughput between
the 2 DL TBFs. This patch enables the user to maximize
the number of DL TSs for the TBF based on the
direction configured through VTY with
cfg_pcu_ts_alloc_maximise_cmd. The maximise_direction
is chosen to be an enum to be open for later additions.

Related: OS#1792
