Currently, a copy of the Rx packet header is copied into the the sk_buff
private data so that we can advance the pointer into the buffer,
potentially discarding the original.  At the moment, this copy is held in
network byte order, but this means we're doing a lot of unnecessary
translations.

The reasons it was done this way are that we need the values in network
byte order occasionally and we can use the copy, slightly modified, as part
of an iov array when sending an ack or an abort packet.

However, it seems more reasonable on review that it would be better kept in
host byte order and that we make up a new header when we want to send
another packet.

To this end, rename the original header struct to rxrpc_wire_header (with
BE fields) and institute a variant called rxrpc_host_header that has host
order fields.  Change the struct in the sk_buff private data into an
rxrpc_host_header and translate the values when filling it in.

This further allows us to keep values kept in various structures in host
byte order rather than network byte order and allows removal of some fields
that are byteswapped duplicates.

The new NET_DEVLINK infrastructure can be a loadable module, but the drivers
using it might be built-in, which causes link errors like:

drivers/net/built-in.o: In function `mlx4_load_one':
:(.text+0x2fbfda): undefined reference to `devlink_port_register'
:(.text+0x2fc084): undefined reference to `devlink_port_unregister'

:(.text+0x33a03a): undefined reference to `devlink_port_type_clear'
:(.text+0x33a04e): undefined reference to `devlink_port_unregister'

There are multiple ways to avoid this:

a) add 'depends on NET_DEVLINK || !NET_DEVLINK' dependencies
   for each user
b) use 'select NET_DEVLINK' from each driver that uses it
   and hide the symbol in Kconfig.
c) make NET_DEVLINK a 'bool' option so we don't have to
   list it as a dependency, and rely on the APIs to be
   stubbed out when it is disabled
d) use IS_REACHABLE() rather than IS_ENABLED() to check for
   NET_DEVLINK in include/net/devlink.h

This implements a variation of approach a) by adding an
intermediate symbol that drivers can depend on, and changes
the three drivers using it.

This action allows for a sending side to encapsulate arbitrary metadata
which is decapsulated by the receiving end.
The sender runs in encoding mode and the receiver in decode mode.
Both sender and receiver must specify the same ethertype.
At some point we hope to have a registered ethertype and we'll
then provide a default so the user doesnt have to specify it.
For now we enforce the user specify it.

Lets show example usage where we encode icmp from a sender towards
a receiver with an skbmark of 17; both sender and receiver use
ethertype of 0xdead to interop.

sudo $TC filter add dev $ETH parent ffff: prio 2 protocol 0xdead \

action ife decode reclassify

xxx: on restarting the classification from above if it was an icmp
xxx: packet, then match it here and continue to the next rule at prio 4
xxx: which will match based on skb mark of 17
sudo tc filter add dev $ETH parent ffff: prio 3 protocol ip \
u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:1 \
action continue

xxx: match on skbmark of 0x11 (decimal 17) and accept
sudo tc filter add dev $ETH parent ffff: prio 4 protocol ip \

Allow for more multicast router port information to be dumped such as
timer and type attributes. For that that purpose we need to extend the
MDBA_ROUTER_PORT attribute similar to how it was done for the mdb entries
recently. The new format is thus:
[MDBA_ROUTER_PORT] = { <- nested attribute
    u32 ifindex <- router port ifindex for user-space compatibility
    [MDBA_ROUTER_PATTR attributes]
}
This way it remains compatible with older users (they'll simply retrieve
the u32 in the beginning) and new users can parse the remaining
attributes. It would also allow to add future extensions to the router
port without breaking compatibility.

In the initial implementation the only way to stop a rule from being
inserted into the hardware table was via the device feature flag.
However this doesn't work well when working on an end host system
where packets are expect to hit both the hardware and software
datapaths.

For example we can imagine a rule that will match an IP address and
increment a field. If we install this rule in both hardware and
software we may increment the field twice. To date we have only
added support for the drop action so we have been able to ignore
these cases. But as we extend the action support we will hit this
example plus more such cases. Arguably these are not even corner
cases in many working systems these cases will be common.

To avoid forcing the driver to always abort (i.e. the above example)
this patch adds a flag to add a rule in software only. A careful
user can use this flag to build software and hardware datapaths
that work together. One example we have found particularly useful
is to use hardware resources to set the skb->mark on the skb when
the match may be expensive to run in software but a mark lookup
in a hash table is cheap. The idea here is hardware can do in one
lookup what the u32 classifier may need to traverse multiple lists
and hash tables to compute. The flag is only passed down on inserts.
On deletion to avoid stale references in hardware we always try
to remove a rule if it exists.

The flags field is part of the classifier specific options. Although
it is tempting to lift this into the generic structure doing this
proves difficult do to how the tc netlink attributes are implemented
along with how the dump/change routines are called. There is also
precedence for putting seemingly generic pieces in the specific
classifier options such as TCA_U32_POLICE, TCA_U32_ACT, etc. So
although not ideal I've left FLAGS in the u32 options as well as it
simplifies the code greatly and user space has already learned how
to manage these bits ala 'tc' tool.

Another thing if trying to update a rule we require the flags to
be unchanged. This is to force user space, software u32 and
the hardware u32 to keep in sync. Thanks to Simon Horman for
catching this case.

The offload decision was originally very basic and tied to if the dev
implemented the appropriate ndo op hook. The next step is to allow
the user to more flexibly define if any paticular rule should be
offloaded or not. In order to have this logic in one function lift
the current check into a helper routine tc_should_offload().
