[ipv6] Add support for RTA_PREFSRC
This patch allows a user to select the preferred source address
for a specific IPv6-Route. It can be set via a netlink message
setting RTA_PREFSRC to a valid IPv6 address which must be
up on the device the route will be bound to.

[ipv6] Ignore looped-back NAs while in Duplicate Address Detection
If we send an unsolicited NA shortly after bringing up an
IPv6 address, the duplicate address detection algorithm
fails and the ip stays in tentative mode forever.
This is due a missing check if the NA is looped-back to us.

When physical identification of an adapter is done by toggling the
mechanism on and off through software utilizing the set_phys_id operation,
it is done with a fixed duration for both on and off states. Some drivers
may want to set a custom duration for the on/off intervals. This patch
changes the API so the return code from the driver's entry point when it
is called with ETHTOOL_ID_ACTIVE can specify the frequency at which to
cycle the on/off states, and updates the drivers that have already been
converted to use the new set_phys_id and use the synchronous method for
identifying an adapter.
The physical identification frequency set in the updated drivers is based
on how it was done prior to the introduction of set_phys_id.
Compile tested only. Also fixes a compiler warning in sfc.
v2: drivers do not return -EINVAL for ETHOOL_ID_ACTIVE
v3: fold patchset into single patch and cleanup per Ben's feedback

fib_select_default() is a complete NOP, and completely pointless
to invoke, when we have no more than 1 default route installed.
And this is far and away the common case.
So remember how many prefixlen==0 routes we have in the routing
table, and elide the call when we have no more than one of those.
This cuts output route creation time by 157 cycles on Niagara2+.
In order to add the new int to fib_table, we have to correct the type
of ->tb_data[] to unsigned long, otherwise the private area will be
unaligned on 64-bit systems.

Ethtool support to configure RX, TX and other channels. combined field

Other channel can be link interrupts, SR-IOV coordination etc.
ETHTOOL_GCHANNELS will report max and current number of RX channels,
max and current number of TX channels, max and current number of other channel
or max and current number of combined channel.
Number of channel can be modify upto max number of channel through
ETHTOOL_SCHANNELS command.

Now there are 2 paths for rx vlan frames. When rx-vlan-hw-accel is
enabled, skb is untagged by NIC, vlan_tci is set and the skb gets into
vlan code in __netif_receive_skb - vlan_hwaccel_do_receive.
For non-rx-vlan-hw-accel however, tagged skb goes thru whole
__netif_receive_skb, it's untagged in ptype_base hander and reinjected
This incosistency is fixed by this patch. Vlan untagging happens early in
__netif_receive_skb so the rest of code (ptype_all handlers, rx_handlers)
see the skb like it was untagged by hw.

This change is meant to add an ntuple data extensions to the rx network flow
classification specifiers. The idea is to allow ntuple to be displayed via
the network flow classification interface.
The first patch had some left over stuff from the original flow extension
flags I had added. That bit is removed in this patch.
The second had some left over comments that stated we ignored bits in the
masks when we actually match them.
This work is based on input from Ben Hutchings.

This change is meant to prevent a possible null pointer dereference if
NETIF_F_NTUPLE is defined but the set_rx_ntuple function pointer is not.
The main motivation behind this patch is to eventually replace the ntuple
interfaces entirely with the network flow classifier interfaces. This
allows the device drivers to maintain the ntuple check internally while
using the network flow classifier interface for setting up and displaying
rules.

The reverse path filter interferes with IPsec subnet-to-subnet tunnels,
especially when the link to the IPsec peer is on an interface other than
the one hosting the default route.
With dynamic routing, where the peer might be reachable through eth0
today and eth1 tomorrow, it's difficult to keep rp_filter enabled unless
fake routes to the remote subnets are configured on the interface
currently used to reach the peer.
IPsec provides a much stronger anti-spoofing policy than rp_filter, so
this patch disables the rp_filter for packets with a security path.

Commit 1018b5c01636c7c6bda31a719bda34fc631db29a ("Set rt->rt_iif more
sanely on output routes.") breaks rt_is_{output,input}_route.
This became the cause to return "IP_PKTINFO's ->ipi_ifindex == 0".
To fix it, this does:
1) Add "int rt_route_iif;" to struct rtable
2) For input routes, always set rt_route_iif to same value as rt_iif
3) For output routes, always set rt_route_iif to zero. Set rt_iif
as it is done currently.
4) Change rt_is_{output,input}_route() to test rt_route_iif

We have no other option but to inform userspace that we
have queued up their regulatory hint request when we are
given one given that nl80211 operates atomically on user
requests. The best we can do is accept the request, and
add a delayed work item for processing failure and cancel it
if we succeeed. Upon failure we restore the regulatory
settings and ignore the user input.
This fixes this reported bug:

When we restore regulatory settings its possible CRDA
will not reply because of a bogus user entry. In this
case the bogus entry will prevent any further processing
on cfg80211 for regulatory domains even if we restore
regulatory settings.
To prevent this we suck out all pending requests when
restoring regulatory settings and add them back into the
queue after we have queued up the reset work.
The impact of not having this applied is that a user
with privileges can issue a userspace regulatory hint
while we are disasocciating and this would prevent any
further processing of regulatory domains.

properly record sk_rxhash in ipv6 sockets (v2)
Noticed while working on another project that flows to sockets which I had open
on a test systems weren't getting steered properly when I had RFS enabled.
Looking more closely I found that:
1) The affected sockets were all ipv6
2) They weren't getting steered because sk->sk_rxhash was never set from the
incomming skbs on that socket.
This was occuring because there are several points in the IPv4 tcp and udp code
which save the rxhash value when a new connection is established. Those calls
to sock_rps_save_rxhash were never added to the corresponding ipv6 code paths.
This patch adds those calls. Tested by myself to properly enable RFS
functionalty on ipv6.

The ethtool ETHTOOL_PHYS_ID command runs for an arbitrarily long
period of time, holding the RTNL lock. This blocks routing updates,
device enumeration, and various important operations that one might
want to keep running while hunting for the flashing LED.
We need to drop the RTNL lock during this operation, but currently the
core implementation is a thin wrapper around a driver operation and
drivers may well depend upon holding the lock.
Define a new driver operation 'set_phys_id' with an argument that sets
the ID indicator on/off/inactive/active (the last optional, for any
driver or firmware that prefers to handle blinking asynchronously).
When this is defined, the ethtool core drops the lock while waiting
and only acquires it around calls to this operation.
Deprecate the 'phys_id' operation in favour of this. It can be
removed once all in-tree drivers are converted.
