This patch adds the following structure:

struct netlink_kernel_cfg {
        unsigned int    groups;
        void            (*input)(struct sk_buff *skb);
        struct mutex    *cb_mutex;
};

That can be passed to netlink_kernel_create to set optional configurations
for netlink kernel sockets.

I've populated this structure by looking for NULL and zero parameters at the
existing code. The remaining parameters that always need to be set are still
left in the original interface.

That includes optional parameters for the netlink socket creation. This allows
easy extensibility of this interface in the future.

This patch also adapts all callers to use this new interface.

This makes it a little less error prone by not exposing sysctls for the

[PATCH V5 net-next] neigh: new unresolved queue limits

unres_qlen is the number of frames we are able to queue per unresolved
neighbour. Its default value (3) was never changed and is responsible
for strange drops, especially if IP fragments are used, or multiple
sessions start in parallel. Even a single tcp flow can hit this limit.

The message size allocated for rtnl ifinfo dumps was limited to

available with devices that support SR-IOV and caused a bug in
which VF info would not be displayed if more than approximately

calculate the amount of data required for the ifinfo dump and allocate
enough data to satisfy the request.

Four years ago, Patrick made a change to hold rtnl mutex during netlink
dump callbacks.

I believe it was a wrong move. This slows down concurrent dumps, making
good old /proc/net/ files faster than rtnetlink in some situations.

This occurred to me because one "ip link show dev ..." was _very_ slow
on a workload adding/removing network devices in background.

All dump callbacks are able to use RCU locking now, so this patch does
roughly a revert of commits :

1c2d670f : [RTNETLINK]: Hold rtnl_mutex during netlink dump callbacks
6313c1e0 : [RTNETLINK]: Remove unnecessary locking in dump callbacks

This let writers fight for rtnl mutex and readers going full speed.

It also takes care of phonet : phonet_route_get() is now called from rcu
read section. I renamed it to phonet_route_get_rcu()
