I noticed that some of 'struct proto_ops' used in the kernel may share
a cache line used by locks or other heavily modified data. (default
linker alignement is 32 bytes, and L1_CACHE_LINE is 64 or 128 at
least)

This patch makes sure a 'struct proto_ops' can be declared as const,
so that all cpus can share all parts of it without false sharing.

This is not mandatory : a driver can still use a read/write structure
if it needs to (and eventually a __read_mostly)

I made a global stubstitute to change all existing occurences to make
them const.

This should reduce the possibility of false sharing on SMP, and
speedup some socket system calls.

It is possible to get to sctp_v4_get_saddr() without a valid
association.  This happens when processing OOTB packets and
the cached route entry is no longer valid.
However, when responding to OOTB packets we already properly
set the source address based on the information in the OOTB
packet.  So, if we we get to sctp_v4_get_saddr() without an
association we can simply return.

In 'net' change the explicit use of for-loops and NR_CPUS into the
general for_each_cpu() or for_each_online_cpu() constructs, as
appropriate.  This widens the scope of potential future optimizations
of the general constructs, as well as takes advantage of the existing
optimizations of first_cpu() and next_cpu(), which is advantageous
when the true CPU count is much smaller than NR_CPUS.

The following patch renames __in_dev_get() to __in_dev_get_rtnl() and
introduces __in_dev_get_rcu() to cover the second case.

1) RCU with refcnt should use in_dev_get().
2) RCU without refcnt should use __in_dev_get_rcu().
3) All others must hold RTNL and use __in_dev_get_rtnl().

There is one exception in net/ipv4/route.c which is in fact a pre-existing
race condition.  I've marked it as such so that we remember to fix it.

This patch is based on suggestions and prior work by Suzanne Wood and

Since the patch to add a NULL short-circuit to crypto_free_tfm() went in,
there's no longer any need for callers of that function to check for NULL.
This patch removes the redundant NULL checks and also a few similar checks
for NULL before calls to kfree() that I ran into while doing the
crypto_free_tfm bits.

I've succesfuly compile tested this patch, and a kernel with the patch 
applied boots and runs just fine.

When I posted the patch to LKML (and other lists/people on Cc) it drew the
following comments :

 J. Bruce Fields commented
  "I've no problem with the auth_gss or nfsv4 bits.--b."

 Sridhar Samudrala said
  "sctp change looks fine."

This patch replaces the spin_lock_irqsave call on the receive queue
lock in SCTP with spin_lock_bh.  Despite the proliferation of
spin_lock_irqsave calls in this stack, it is only entered from the
IPv4/IPv6 stack and user space.  That is, it is never entered from
hardirq context.

The call in question is only called from recvmsg which means that
IRQs aren't disabled.  Therefore it is safe to replace it with
spin_lock_bh.
