The IPv6 header is not zeroed out in alloc_skb so we must initialize
it properly unless we want to see IPv6 packets with random TOS fields
floating around. The current implementation resets the flow label
but this could be changed if deemed necessary.
We stumbled upon this issue when trying to apply a mangle rule to
the RST packet generated by the REJECT target module.

DESCRIPTION
This patch tries to restore the initial init and cleanup
sequences that was before namspace patch.
Netns also requires action when net devices unregister
which has never been implemented. I.e this patch also
covers when a device moves into a network namespace,
and has to be released.
IMPLEMENTATION
The number of calls to register_pernet_device have been
reduced to one for the ip_vs.ko
Schedulers still have their own calls.
This patch adds a function __ip_vs_service_cleanup()
and an enable flag for the netfilter hooks.
The nf hooks will be enabled when the first service is loaded
and never disabled again, except when a namespace exit starts.

If the sync daemons run in a name space while it crashes
or get killed, there is no way to stop them except for a reboot.
When all patches are there, ip_vs_core will handle register_pernet_(),
i.e. ip_vs_sync_init() and ip_vs_sync_cleanup() will be removed.
Kernel threads should not increment the use count of a socket.
By calling sk_change_net() after creating a socket this is avoided.
sock_release cant be used intead sk_release_kernel() should be used.

The optimizations in commit 255d0dc340
(netfilter: x_table: speedup compat operations) assume that
xt_compat_add_offset is called once per rule.
ebtables however called it for each match/target found in a rule.
The match/watcher/target parser already returns the needed delta, so it
is sufficient to move the xt_compat_add_offset call to a more reasonable
location.
While at it, also get rid of the unused COMPAT iterator macros.

Commit 4a94445c9a (net: Use ip_route_input_noref() in input path)
added a bug in IP defragmentation handling, in case timeout is fired.
When a frame is defragmented, we use last skb dst field when building
final skb. Its dst is valid, since we are in rcu read section.
But if a timeout occurs, we take first queued fragment to build one ICMP
TIME EXCEEDED message. Problem is all queued skb have weak dst pointers,
since we escaped RCU critical section after their queueing. icmp_send()
might dereference a now freed (and possibly reused) part of memory.
Calling skb_dst_drop() and ip_route_input_noref() to revalidate route is
the only possible choice.

The bug was that unix domain sockets use a pseduo packet for
connecting and accept uses that psudo packet to get the socket.
In the buggy seqpacket case we were allowing unconnected
sockets to call recvmsg and try to receive the pseudo packet.
That is always wrong and as of commit 7361c36c5 the pseudo
packet had become enough different from a normal packet
that the kernel started oopsing.
Do for seqpacket_recv what was done for seqpacket_send in 2.5
and only allow it on connected seqpacket sockets.

It occured during some stress testing, in which the reporter was repeatedly
removing and modprobing the bnx2 module while doing various other random
operations on the bnx2 registered net device. Noting that this error occured on
a serdes based device, we noted that there were a few ethtool operations (most
notably self_test and set_phys_id) that have execution paths that lead into
bnx2_setup_serdes_phy. This function is notable because it executes a mod_timer
call, which starts the bp->timer running. Currently bnx2 is setup to assume
that this timer only nees to be stopped when bnx2_close or bnx2_suspend is
called. Since the above ethtool operations are not gated on the net device
having been opened however, that assumption is incorrect, and can lead to the
timer still running after the module has been removed, leading to the oops above
(as well as other simmilar oopses).
Fix the problem by ensuring that the timer is stopped when pci_device_unregister
is called.

The firmware is cached during the first successfull call to open() and
released once the network device is unregistered. The driver uses the
cached firmware between open() and unregister_netdev().
So far the firmware is optional : a failure to load the firmware does
not prevent open() to success. It is thus necessary to 1) unregister
all 816x / 810[23] devices and 2) force a driver probe to issue a new
firmware load.

A deadlock was reported to me recently that occured when netconsole was being
used in a virtual guest. If the virtio_net driver was removed while netconsole
was setup to use an interface that was driven by that driver, the guest
deadlocked. No backtrace was provided because netconsole was the only console
configured, but it became clear pretty quickly what the problem was. In
netconsole_netdev_event, if we get an unregister event, we call
__netpoll_cleanup with the target_list_lock held and irqs disabled.
__netpoll_cleanup can, if pending netpoll packets are waiting call
cancel_delayed_work_sync, which is a sleeping path. the might_sleep call in
that path gets triggered, causing a console warning to be issued. The
netconsole write handler of course tries to take the target_list_lock again,
which we already hold, causing deadlock.
The fix is pretty striaghtforward. Simply drop the target_list_lock and
re-enable irqs prior to calling __netpoll_cleanup, the re-acquire the lock, and
restart the loop. Confirmed by myself to fix the problem reported.

This prevented from correctly receiving UDP multicast packets.

Also renamed hash_table_* with grp_hash_table_* in struct fec declaration

iwlwifi: sanity check before counting number of tfds can be free
we use skb->data after calling ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe(), which
could free skb instantly.
On current kernels I do not observe practical problems related with
bug, but on 2.6.35.y it cause random system hangs when stressing
wireless link, making bisection of other problems impossible.
