tipc_msg_build() now copies message data from iovec to skb_buff
using memcpy_fromiovecend(), which doesn't need to be passed the
iovec length to perform the copying.
So we remove the parameter indicating iovec length in all
functions where TIPC messages are built and sent.

tipc_msg_build() calls skb_copy_to_linear_data_offset() to copy data
from user space to kernel space. However, the latter function does
in its turn call memcpy() to perform the actual copying. This poses
an obvious security and robustness risk, since memcpy() never makes
any validity check on the pointer it is copying from.
To correct this, we the replace the offending function call with
a call to memcpy_fromiovecend(), which uses copy_from_user() to
perform the copying.

After the native API has been completely removed, the 'user_port'
field in struct tipc_port becomes unused, and can be removed.
As a consequence, the "usrmem" argument in tipc_msg_build() is no
longer needed, and so we remove that one too.

The link queue traces and packet level debug functions served
a purpose during early development, but are now redundant
since there are other, more capable tools available for
debugging at the packet level.
The TIPC_DEBUG Kconfig option is removed since it does not
provide any extra debugging features anymore.
This gets rid of a lot of tipc_printf usages, which will
make the pending cleanup work of that function easier.

Some of the comment blocks are floating in limbo between two
functions, or between blocks of code. Delete the extra line
feeds between any comment and its associated following block
of code, to be consistent with the majority of the rest of
the kernel. Also delete trailing newlines at EOF and fix
a couple trivial typos in existing comments.
This is a 100% cosmetic change with no runtime impact. We get
rid of over 500 lines of non-code, and being blank line deletes,
they won't even show up as noise in git blame.

Reworks TIPC's media address data structure and associated processing
routines to transfer all media-specific details of address conversion
to the associated TIPC media adaptation code. TIPC's generic bearer code
now only needs to know which media type an address is associated with
and whether or not it is a broadcast address, and totally ignores the
"value" field that contains the actual media-specific addressing info.
These changes eliminate the need for a number of endianness conversion
operations and will make it easier for TIPC to support new media types
in the future.

Rework TIPC's message sending routines to take advantage of the total
amount of data value passed to it by the kernel socket infrastructure.
This change eliminates the need for TIPC to compute the size of outgoing
messages itself, as well as the check for an oversize message in
tipc_msg_build(). In addition, this change warrants an explanation:
- res = send_packet(NULL, sock, &my_msg, 0);
+ res = send_packet(NULL, sock, &my_msg, bytes_to_send);
Previously, the final argument to send_packet() was ignored (since the
amount of data being sent was recalculated by a lower-level routine)
and we could just pass in a dummy value (0). Now that the
recalculation is being eliminated, the argument value being passed to
send_packet() is significant and we have to supply the actual amount
of data we want to send.

TIPC includes no debugging code, and any debugging code added by developers
that calls the dbg() and dbg_macros() is compiled out. If debugging support
is enabled, TIPC prints out some additional data about its internal state
when certain abnormal conditions occur, and any developer-added calls to the
TIPC debug macros are compiled in.
