This change allows to consider an anycast address valid as source address
when given via an IPV6_PKTINFO or IPV6_2292PKTINFO ancillary data item.
So, when sending a datagram with ancillary data, the unicast and anycast
addresses are handled in the same way.

- Adds ipv6_chk_acast_addr_src() to check if an anycast address is link-local
  on given interface or is global.
- Uses it in ip6_datagram_send_ctl().

A patch for fixing a race between queue selection and changing queues
was introduced in commit 92bb73ea("tuntap: fix a possible race between
queue selection and changing queues").

The fix was to prevent the driver from re-reading the tun->numqueues
more than once within tun_select_queue() using ACCESS_ONCE().

We have been experiancing 'Divide-by-zero' errors in tun_net_xmit()
since we moved from 3.6 to 3.10, and believe that they come from a
simular source where the value of tun->numqueues changes to zero
between the first and a subsequent read of tun->numqueues.

The fix is a simular use of ACCESS_ONCE(), as well as a multiply
instead of a divide in the if statement.

br_handle_vlan() pushes HW accelerated vlan tag into skbuff when outgoing
port is the bridge device.
This is unnecessary because __netif_receive_skb_core() can handle skbs
with HW accelerated vlan tag. In current implementation,
__netif_receive_skb_core() needs to extract the vlan tag embedded in skb
data. This could cause low network performance especially when receiving
frames at a high frame rate on the bridge device.

In bbf852b9 I introduced the tmlist, which allows to delete
multiple entries from the cache that match a specified destination if no
source-IP is specified.

However, as the cache is an RCU-list, we should not create this tmlist, as
it will change the tcpm_next pointer of the element that will be deleted
and so a thread iterating over the cache's entries while holding the
RCU-lock might get "redirected" to this tmlist.

This patch fixes this, by reverting back to the old behavior prior to
bbf852b9, which means that we simply change the tcpm_next
pointer of the previous element (pp) to jump over the one we are
deleting.
The difference is that we call kfree_rcu() directly on the cache entry,
which allows us to delete multiple entries from the list.

Fixes: bbf852b9 (tcp: metrics: Delete all entries matching a certain destination)

bonding: fix primary problem for bonding

If the slave's name changed, and the bond params primary is exist,
the bond should deal with the situation in two ways:

1) If the slave was the primary slave yet, clean the primary slave
   and reselect active slave.
2) If the slave's new name is as same as bond primary, set the slave
   as primary slave and reselect active slave.

If the new primary is not matching any slave in the bond, the bond should
record it to params, clean the primary slave and select a new active slave.

Update bonding.txt for primary description.

v2.1->v1: Because there are too many indentions and useless verification, so rewrite
	  the logic for updating the primary slave.
	  Modify some comments for to clean the typos.

v3->v2.1: Veaceslav disagree the first patch and modify the logic for it
	  (bonding: update the primary slave when changing slave's name)
	  and resend it himself (bonding: handle slave's name change with primary_slave logic),

As per suggestion from Eric W. Biederman, vxlan should be using
{un,}register_pernet_subsys() instead of {un,}register_pernet_device()
to ensure the vxlan_net structure is initialized before and cleaned
up after all network devices in a given network namespace i.e. when
dealing with network notifiers. This is similarly handeled already in
commit 91e2ff35 ("net: Teach vlans to cleanup as a pernet subsystem")
and, thus, improves upon fd27e0d4 ("net: vxlan: do not use vxlan_net
before checking event type"). Just as in 91e2ff35, we do not need
to explicitly handle deletion of vxlan devices as network namespace
exit calls dellink on all remaining virtual devices, and
rtnl_link_unregister() calls dellink on all outstanding devices in that
network namespace, so we can entirely drop the pernet exit operation
as well. Moreover, on vxlan module exit, rcu_barrier() is called by
netns since commit 3a765eda ("netns: Add an explicit rcu_barrier
to unregister_pernet_{device|subsys}"), so this may be omitted. Tested
with various scenarios and works well on my side.

====================
bonding: introduce new option API

This patchset's goal is to introduce a new option API which should be used
to properly describe the bonding options with their mode dependcies and
requirements. With this patchset applied we get centralized option
manipulation, automatic RTNL acquire per option setting, automatic option
range checking, mode dependcy checking and other various flags which are
described in detail in patch 01's commit message and comments.
Also the parameter passing is changed to use a specialized structure which
is initialized to a value depending on the needs.
The main exported functions are:
 __bond_opt_set() - set an option (RTNL should be acquired prior)
 bond_opt_init(val|str) - init a bond_opt_value struct for value or string
                          parameter passing
 bond_opt_tryset_rtnl() - function which tries to acquire rtnl, mainly used
                          for sysfs
 bond_opt_parse - used to parse or check for valid values
 bond_opt_get - retrieve a pointer to bond_option struct for some option
 bond_opt_get_val - retrieve a pointer to a bond_opt_value struct for
                    some value

The same functions are used to set an option via sysfs and netlink, just
the parameter that's passed is usually initialized in a different way.
The converted options have multiple style fixes, there're some longer
lines but they looked either ugly or were strings/pr_warnings, if you
think some line would be better broken just let me know :-) there're
also a few sscanf false-positive warnings.
I decided to keep the "unsuppmodes" way of mode dep checking since it's
straight forward, if we make a more general way for checking dependencies
it'll be easy to change it.

Future plans for this work include:
 - Automatic sysfs generation from the bond_opts[].
 - Use of the API in bond_check_params() and thus cleaning it up (this has
   actually started, I'll take care of the rest in a separate patch)
 - Clean up all option-unrelated files of option definitions and functions

I've tried to leave as much documentation as possible, if there's anything
unclear please let me know. One more thing, I haven't moved all
option-related functions from bonding.h to the new bond_options.h, this
will be done in a separate patch, it's in my todo list.

This patchset has been tested by setting each converted option via sysfs
and netlink to a couple of wrong values, a couple of correct values and
some random values, also for the opts that have flags they have been
tested as well.

This patch adds the necessary basic infrastructure to support
centralized and unified option manipulation API for the bonding. The new
structure bond_option will be used to describe each option with its
dependencies on modes which will be checked automatically thus removing a
lot of duplicated code. Also automatic range checking is added for
some options. Currently the option setting function requires RTNL to
be acquired prior to calling it, since many options already rely on RTNL
it seemed like the best choice to protect all against common race
conditions.
In order to add an option the following steps need to be done:
1. Add an entry BOND_OPT_<option> to bond_options.h so it gets a unique id
   and a bit corresponding to the id
2. Add a bond_option entry to the bond_opts[] array in bond_options.c which
   describes the option, its dependencies and its manipulation function
3. Add code to export the option through sysfs and/or as a module parameter
   (the sysfs export will be made automatically in the future)

The options can have different flags set, currently the following are
supported:
BOND_OPTFLAG_NOSLAVES - require that the bond device has no slaves prior
                        to setting the option
BOND_OPTFLAG_IFDOWN - require that the bond device is down prior to
                      setting the option
BOND_OPTFLAG_RAWVAL - don't parse the value but return it raw for the
                      option to parse

There's a new value structure to describe different types of values
which can have the following flags:
BOND_VALFLAG_DEFAULT - marks the default option (permanent string alias
                       to this option is "default")
BOND_VALFLAG_MIN - the minimum value that this option can have
BOND_VALFLAG_MAX - the maximum value that this option can have

An example would be nice here, so if we have an option which can have
the values "off"(2), "special"(4, default) and supports a range, say
16 - 32, it should be defined as follows:
"off", 2,
"special", 4, BOND_VALFLAG_DEFAULT,
"rangemin", 16, BOND_VALFLAG_MIN,
"rangemax", 32, BOND_VALFLAG_MAX
So we have the valid intervals: [2, 2], [4, 4], [16, 32]
Also the valid strings: "off" = 2, "special" and "default" = 4
                        "rangemin" = 16, "rangemax" = 32

BOND_VALFLAG_(MIN|MAX) can be used to specify a valid range for an
option, if MIN is omitted then 0 is considered as a minimum. If an
exact match is found in the values[] table it will be returned,
otherwise the range is tried (if available).

The option parameter passing is done by using a special structure called
bond_opt_value which can take either a string or a value to parse. One
of the bond_opt_init(val|str) macros should be used depending on which
one does the user want to parse (string or value). Then a call to
__bond_opt_set should be done under RTNL.

====================
reciprocal_divide update

This patch is on top of aee636c4 ("bpf: do not use reciprocal
divide") from Eric that sits in net tree. It will not create a merge
conflict, but it depends on this one, so we suggest, if possible, to
merge net into net-next.

We are proposing this change with only small modifications from the
v2 version, namely updating the name of trim to reciprocal_scale
(as commented on by Ben Hutchings and Eric Dumazet, thanks!).

We thought about introducing the reciprocal_divide algorithm in
parallel to the one already used by the kernel but faced organizational
issues, leading us to the conclusion that it is best to just replace
the old one: We could not come up with names for the different
implementations and also with a way to describe the differences to
guide developers which one to choose in which situation. This is
because we cannot specify the correct semantics for the version
which is currently used by the kernel. Altough it seems to not be
causing problems in the kernel, we cannot surely say so in the
case of flex_array for the future. Current usage seems ok, but
future users could run into problems.

Changelog:

v1->v2:
 - changed name to prandom_u32_max in p1
 - changed name to trim in p2
 - reworked code in p3
v2->v3:
 - p1 and p3 stays unchanged, only small update in commit
   message in p3
 - changed name to reciprocal_scale in p2
 - fixed kernel doc format
v3->v4:
 - pseduo -> pseudo (thanks to Tilman Schmidt)
v4->v5:
 - fix pseduo -> pseudo for real now, sorry for the noise
