genetlink: clean up multicast group APIs

The generic netlink multicast group registration doesn't have to
be dynamic, and can thus be simplified just like I did with the
ops. This removes some complexity in registration code.

Additionally, two users of generic netlink already use multicast
groups in a wrong way, add workarounds for those two to keep the
userspace API working, but at the same time make them not clash
with other users of multicast groups as might happen now.

While making it all a bit easier, also prevent such abuse by adding
checks to the APIs so each family can only use the groups it owns.
====================

Register generic netlink multicast groups as an array with
the family and give them contiguous group IDs. Then instead
of passing the global group ID to the various functions that
send messages, pass the ID relative to the family - for most
families that's just 0 because the only have one group.

This avoids the list_head and ID in each group, adding a new
field for the mcast group ID offset to the family.

At the same time, this allows us to prevent abusing groups
again like the quota and dropmon code did, since we can now
check that a family only uses a group it owns.

The quota code is abusing the genetlink API and is using
its family ID as the multicast group ID, which is invalid
and may belong to somebody else (and likely will.)

Make the quota code use the correct API, but since this
is already used as-is by userspace, reserve a family ID
for this code and also reserve that group ID to not break
userspace assumptions.

The drop monitor code is abusing the genetlink API and is
statically using the generic netlink multicast group 1, even
if that group belongs to somebody else (which it invariably
will, since it's not reserved.)

Make the drop monitor code use the proper APIs to reserve a
group ID, but also reserve the group id 1 in generic netlink
code to preserve the userspace API. Since drop monitor can
be a module, don't clear the bit for it on unregistration.

As suggested by David Miller, make genl_register_family_with_ops()
a macro and pass only the array, evaluating ARRAY_SIZE() in the
macro, this is a little safer.

The openvswitch has some indirection, assing ops/n_ops directly in
that code. This might ultimately just assign the pointers in the
family initializations, saving the struct genl_family_and_ops and
code (once mcast groups are handled differently.)

snd_nxt must be updated synchronously with sk_send_head.  Otherwise
tp->packets_out may be updated incorrectly, what may bring a kernel panic.

Here is a kernel panic from my host.
[  103.043194] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000048
[  103.044025] IP: [<ffffffff815aaaaf>] tcp_rearm_rto+0xcf/0x150
...
[  146.301158] Call Trace:
[  146.301158]  [<ffffffff815ab7f0>] tcp_ack+0xcc0/0x12c0

Before this panic a tcp socket was restored. This socket had sent and
unsent data in the write queue. Sent data was restored in repair mode,
then the socket was switched from reapair mode and unsent data was
restored. After that the socket was switched back into repair mode.

In that moment we had a socket where write queue looks like this:
snd_una    snd_nxt   write_seq
   |_________|________|
             |
	  sk_send_head

After a second switching from repair mode the state of socket was
changed:

snd_una          snd_nxt, write_seq
   |_________ ________|
             |
	  sk_send_head

This state is inconsistent, because snd_nxt and sk_send_head are not
synchronized.

Bellow you can find a call trace, how packets_out can be incremented
twice for one skb, if snd_nxt and sk_send_head are not synchronized.
In this case packets_out will be always positive, even when
sk_write_queue is empty.

tcp_write_wakeup
	skb = tcp_send_head(sk);
	tcp_fragment
		if (!before(tp->snd_nxt, TCP_SKB_CB(buff)->end_seq))
			tcp_adjust_pcount(sk, skb, diff);
	tcp_event_new_data_sent
		tp->packets_out += tcp_skb_pcount(skb);

I think update of snd_nxt isn't required, when a socket is switched from
repair mode.  Because it's initialized in tcp_connect_init. Then when a
write queue is restored, snd_nxt is incremented in tcp_event_new_data_sent,
so it's always is in consistent state.

I have checked, that the bug is not reproduced with this patch and
all tests about restoring tcp connections work fine.

During VF load, prior to sending messages on HW channel to PF the VF
checks its bulletin board to see whether the PF indicated it has closed;
If a closed PF is encountered, the VF skips sending the message.

Due to incorrect return values, there's a possible scenario in which the VF
finishes loading "successfully", while the PF hasn't actually fully configured
FW/HW for the VFs supposed configuration.
Once VF tries to send Tx packets, HW will raise an attention (and FW possibly
will start treat the VF as malicious).

There was a bug in xennet_alloc_rx_buffers, when allocating page or
sk_buff failed, and at the same time rx_batch queue not empty,
the rx_refill_timer timer won't be scheduled. If finally the remaining
request buffers in rx ring less than what backend driver expected,
the backend driver would think of rx ring as full and start dropping packets.
In such situation, there is no way for the netfront driver to recover
automatically, so that the device can not work properly.

The patch fixes the problem by always scheduling rx_refill_timer timer when
alloc_page or __netdev_alloc_skb fails, no matter whether rx_batch queue is
empty or not. It ensures that the rx ring request buffers will finally meet
the backend needs.

For performance reasons, sch_fq tried hard to not setup timers for every
sent packet, using a quantum based heuristic : A delay is setup only if
the flow exhausted its credit.

Problem is that application limited flows can refill their credit
for every queued packet, and they can evade pacing.

This problem can also be triggered when TCP flows use small MSS values,
as TSO auto sizing builds packets that are smaller than the default fq
quantum (3028 bytes)

This patch adds a 40 ms delay to guard flow credit refill.

A customer of ours encountered a problem with LRO on an ixgbe network

but the forwarding was enabled in an LXC container where only a macvlan
was, not the ethernet device itself.

I believe the solution is exactly the same as what we do for "normal"

LRO is disabled on the underlying "real" device instead.

A macvlan device has always LRO disabled so that calling
dev_disable_lro() on it does nothing. If we need to disable LRO
e.g. because

  - the macvlan device is inserted into a bridge
  - IPv6 forwarding is enabled for it
  - it is in a different namespace than lowerdev and IPv4
    forwarding is enabled in it

we need to disable LRO on its underlying device instead (as we
do for 802.1q VLAN devices).

If priority/traffic class field in IPv6 header is set (seen when
using ssh), the uncompression sets the TC and Flow fields incorrectly.

Example:

This is IPv6 header of a sent packet. Note the priority/TC (=1) in
the first byte.

00000000: 61 00 00 00 00 2c 06 40 fe 80 00 00 00 00 00 00
00000010: 02 02 72 ff fe c6 42 10 fe 80 00 00 00 00 00 00
00000020: 02 1e ab ff fe 4c 52 57

This gets compressed like this in the sending side

00000000: 72 31 04 06 02 1e ab ff fe 4c 52 57 ec c2 00 16
00000010: aa 2d fe 92 86 4e be c6 ....

In the receiving end, the packet gets uncompressed to this
IPv6 header

00000000: 60 06 06 02 00 2a 1e 40 fe 80 00 00 00 00 00 00
00000010: 02 02 72 ff fe c6 42 10 fe 80 00 00 00 00 00 00
00000020: ab ff fe 4c 52 57 ec c2

First four bytes are set incorrectly and we have also lost
two bytes from destination address.

The fix is to switch the case values in switch statement
when checking the TC field.
