The TCA_ACT_KIND attribute is used without checking its
availability when dumping actions therefore leading to a
value of 0x4 being dereferenced.

The use of strcmp() in tc_lookup_action_n() isn't safe
when fed with string from an attribute without enforcing
proper NUL termination.

Both bugs can be triggered with malformed netlink message
and don't require any privileges.

The skb is allocated by the function, so it needs to be freed instead
of trimmed on overrun.

tcf_action_exec only gets a single skb pointer and doesn't own the skb,
but passes double skb pointers (to a local variable) to the action
functions. Change to use single skb pointers everywhere.

This patch converts "unsigned flags" to use more explict types like u16
instead and incrementally introduces NLMSG_NEW().

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
