Jesper reported that br_netfilter always registers the hooks since
this is part of the bridge core. This harms performance for people that
don't need this.

This patch modularizes br_netfilter so it can be rmmod'ed, thus,
the hooks can be unregistered. I think the bridge netfilter should have
been a separated module since the beginning, Patrick agreed on that.

Note that this is breaking compatibility for users that expect that
bridge netfilter is going to be available after explicitly 'modprobe
bridge' or via automatic load through brctl.

However, the damage can be easily undone by modprobing br_netfilter.
The bridge core also spots a message to provide a clue to people that
didn't notice that this has been deprecated.

On top of that, the plan is that nftables will not rely on this software
layer, but integrate the connection tracking into the bridge layer to
enable stateful filtering and NAT, which is was bridge netfilter users
seem to require.

This patch still keeps the fake_dst_ops in the bridge core, since this
is required by when the bridge port is initialized. So we can safely
modprobe/rmmod br_netfilter anytime.

Add netlink device ops to allow creating bridge device via netlink.
This works in a manner similar to vlan, macvlan and bonding.

Example:
  # ip link add link dev br0 type bridge
  # ip link del dev br0

The change required rearranging initializtion code to deal with
being called by create link. Most of the initialization happens
in br_dev_setup, but allocation of stats is done in ndo_init callback
to deal with allocation failure. Sysfs setup has to wait until
after the network device kobject is registered.

What this patch does is it removes two receive frame hooks (for bridge and for
macvlan) from __netif_receive_skb. These are replaced them with a single
hook for both. It only supports one hook per device because it makes no
sense to do bridging and macvlan on the same device.

Then a network driver (of virtual netdev like macvlan or bridge) can register
an rx_handler for needed net device.

There is a race condition when unloading bridge and netfilter.

The problem happens if __fake_rtable is in use by a skb
coming in, while someone starts to unload bridge.ko.
br_netfilter_fini() is called at the beginning of unload
in br_deinit() while skbs still are being forwarded and
transferred to local ip stack. Thus there is a possibility
of the __fake_rtable pointer not being removed in a skb that
goes up to ip stack. This results in a kernel panic, as
ip_rcv() calls the input-function of __fake_rtable, which
is NULL.

Moving the call of br_netfilter_fini() to the end of
br_deinit() solves the problem.

Use LLC for the receive path of Spanning Tree Protocol packets.
This allows link local multicast packets to be received by
other protocols (if they care), and uses the existing LLC
code to get STP packets back into bridge code.

The bridge multicast address is also checked, so bridges using
other link local multicast addresses are ignored. This allows
for use of different multicast addresses to define separate STP
domains.

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!
