The following patch renames __in_dev_get() to __in_dev_get_rtnl() and
introduces __in_dev_get_rcu() to cover the second case.
1) RCU with refcnt should use in_dev_get().
2) RCU without refcnt should use __in_dev_get_rcu().
3) All others must hold RTNL and use __in_dev_get_rtnl().
There is one exception in net/ipv4/route.c which is in fact a pre-existing
race condition. I've marked it as such so that we remember to fix it.
This patch is based on suggestions and prior work by Suzanne Wood and
Paul McKenney.

Since the patch to add a NULL short-circuit to crypto_free_tfm() went in,
there's no longer any need for callers of that function to check for NULL.
This patch removes the redundant NULL checks and also a few similar checks
for NULL before calls to kfree() that I ran into while doing the
crypto_free_tfm bits.
I've succesfuly compile tested this patch, and a kernel with the patch
applied boots and runs just fine.
When I posted the patch to LKML (and other lists/people on Cc) it drew the
following comments :
J. Bruce Fields commented
"I've no problem with the auth_gss or nfsv4 bits.--b."
Sridhar Samudrala said
"sctp change looks fine."
Herbert Xu signed off on the patch.
So, I guess this is ready to be dropped into -mm and eventually mainline.

This creates struct inet_connection_sock, moving members out of struct
tcp_sock that are shareable with other INET connection oriented
protocols, such as DCCP, that in my private tree already uses most of
these members.
The functions that operate on these members were renamed, using a
inet_csk_ prefix while not being moved yet to a new file, so as to
ease the review of these changes.

This paves the way to generalise the rest of the sock ID lookup
routines and saves some bytes in TCPv4 TIME_WAIT sockets on distro
kernels (where IPv6 is always built as a module):
[root@qemu ~]# grep tw_sock /proc/slabinfo
tw_sock_TCPv6 0 0 128 31 1
tw_sock_TCP 0 0 96 41 1
[root@qemu ~]#
Now if a protocol wants to use the TIME_WAIT generic infrastructure it
only has to set the sk_prot->twsk_obj_size field with the size of its
inet_timewait_sock derived sock and proto_register will create
sk_prot->twsk_slab, for now its only for INET sockets, but we can
introduce timewait_sock later if some non INET transport protocolo
wants to use this stuff.
Next changesets will take advantage of this new infrastructure to
generalise even more TCP code.

This patch creates a new kstrdup library function and changes the "local"
implementations in several places to use this function.
Most of the changes come from the sound and net subsystems. The sound part
had already been acknowledged by Takashi Iwai and the net part by David S.
Miller.
I left UML alone for now because I would need more time to read the code
carefully before making changes there.

Essentially netlink at the moment always reports a pid and sequence of 0
always for v6 route activities.
To understand the repurcassions of this look at:
http://lists.quagga.net/pipermail/quagga-dev/2005-June/003507.html
While fixing this, i took the liberty to resolve the outstanding issue
of IPV6 routes inserted via ioctls to have the correct pids as well.
This patch tries to behave as close as possible to the v4 routes i.e
maintains whatever PID the socket issuing the command owns as opposed to
the process. That made the patch a little bulky.
I have tested against both netlink derived utility to add/del routes as
well as ioctl derived one. The Quagga folks have tested against quagga.
This fixes the problem and so far hasnt been detected to introduce any
new issues.

Userland layer-2 tunneling devices allocated through the TUNTAP driver
(drivers/net/tun.c) have a type of ARPHRD_NONE, and have no link-layer
address. The kernel complains at regular interval when IPv6 Privacy
extension are enabled because it can't find an hardware address :
Dec 29 11:02:04 auguste kernel: __ipv6_regen_rndid(idev=cb3e0c00):
cannot get EUI64 identifier; use random bytes.
IPv6 Privacy extensions should probably be disabled on that sort of
device. They won't work anyway. If userland wants a more usual
Ethernet-ish interface with usual IPv6 autoconfiguration, it will use a
TAP device with an emulated link-layer and a random hardware address
rather than a TUN device.
As far as I could fine, TUN virtual device from TUNTAP is the very only
sort of device using ARPHRD_NONE as kernel device type.

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!
