This looks very much like the patch for neighbors.
The path is also located on the stack and is prepared
inside the function. This time, the call to the registering
function is guarded with the RTNL lock, but I decided
to keep it on the stack not to litter the devinet.c file
with unneeded names and to make it look similar to the
neighbors code.
This is also intended to help us with the net namespaces
and saves the vmlinux size as well - this time by more
than 670 bytes.
The difference from the first version is just the patch
offsets, that changed due to changes in the patch #2.

Currently this call is used to register sysctls for devices
and for the "default" confs. The "all" sysctls are registered
separately.
Besides, the inet_device is passed to this function, but it is
not needed there at all - just the device name and ifindex are
required.
Thanks to Herbert, who noticed, that this call doesn't even
require the devconf pointer (the last argument) - all we need
we can take from the in_device itself.
The fix is to make a __devinet_sysctl_register(), which registers
sysctls for all "devices" we need, including "default" and "all" :)
The original devinet_sysctl_register() works with struct net_device,
not the inet_device, and calls the introduced function, passing
the device name and ifindex (to be used as procname and ctl_name)
into it.

When re-naming an interface, the previous secondary address
labels get lost e.g.

$> ip addr add 192.168.0.1 dev foo
$> ip addr add 192.168.0.2 dev foo label foo:00
$> ip addr show dev foo | grep inet

$> ip addr show dev bar | grep inet
inet 192.168.0.1/32 scope global bar
inet 192.168.0.2/32 scope global bar:2

According to Herbert, the ipv4_devconf_setall should be called
only when the ifa is added to the device. However, failed

Move the call to ipv4_devconf_setall after the ifa allocation.

Currently we never call unregister_netdev for the loopback device so
it is impossible for us to reach inetdev_destroy with the loopback

Further when testing with my network namespace patches removing
unregistering the loopback device and calling inetdev_destroy works
fine so there appears to be no reason for avoiding unregistering the
loopback device.

This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables. The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl
were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.
vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.
So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.
For now the ifindex generator is left global.
Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.
At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol
stack or a pseudo device. If a protocol stack that does not have
support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a
device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly
can get confused and do the wrong thing.
To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted
this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on
devices that are not in the initial network namespace.
As the rest of the code is made network namespace aware these
checks can be removed.

Bug: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8876
Not all ips are shown by "ip addr show" command when IPs number assigned to an
interface is more than 60-80 (in fact it depends on broadcast/label etc
presence on each address).
Steps to reproduce:
It's terribly simple to reproduce:
# for i in $(seq 1 100); do ip ad add 10.0.$i.1/24 dev eth10 ; done
# ip addr show
this will _not_ show all IPs.

Previously inet devices were only constructed when addresses are added
(or rarely in ipmr). Therefore the default config values they get are
the ones at the time of these operations.
Now that we're creating inet devices earlier, this changes the
behaviour of default config values in an incompatible way (see bug
#8519).
This patch creates a compromise by setting the default values at the
same point as before but only for those that have not been explicitly
set by the user since the inet device's creation.

Previously once inetdev_init has been called on a device any changes
made to ipv4_devconf_dflt would have no effect on that device's
configuration.
This creates a problem since we have moved the point where
inetdev_init is called from when an address is added to where the
device is registered.
This patch is the first half of a set that tries to mimic the old
behaviour while still calling inetdev_init.
It propagates any changes to ipv4_devconf_dflt to those devices that
have not had the corresponding attribute set.
The next patch will forcibly set all values at the point where
inetdev_init was previously called.

The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.
I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.
So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.
To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.
Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
