Several cases of overlapping changes.

The xfrm6_output.c has a bug fix which overlaps the renaming
of skb->local_df to skb->ignore_df.

In the Altera TSE driver cases, the register access cleanups
in net-next overlapped with bug fixes done in net.

Similarly a bug fix to send ALB packets in the bonding driver using
the right source address overlaps with cleanups in net-next.

Nikolay Aleksandrov dc3e5d18f2 bonding: make a generic sysfs option store and fix comments
Introduce a generic option store function for sysfs and remove the
specific ones. The attribute name is used to match against the option
which is to be set.
Also adjust the "name" of tlb_dynamic_lb option to match the sysfs
entry and fix the comments and comment style in bond_sysfs.c
The comments which showed obvious behaviour (i.e. behaviour that's seen
in the option's entry) are removed, the ones that explained important
points about the setting function have been moved above the respective
set function in bond_options.c

There's only 1 exception: num_unsol_na/num_grat_arp since it has 2 names

Mahesh Bandewar e9f0fb8849 bonding: Add tlb_dynamic_lb parameter for tlb mode
The aggresive load balancing causes packet re-ordering as active
flows are moved from a slave to another within the group. Sometime
this aggresive lb is not necessary if the preference is for less
re-ordering. This parameter if used with value "0" disables
this dynamic flow shuffling minimizing packet re-ordering. Of course
the side effect is that it has to live with the static load balancing
that the hashing distribution provides. This impact is less severe if
the correct xmit-hashing-policy is used for the tlb setup.

The default value of the parameter is set to "1" mimicing the earlier
behavior.

Ran the netperf test with 200 stream for 1 min between two hosts with
4x1G trunk (xmit-lb mode with xmit-policy L3+4) before and after these
changes. Following was the command used for those 200 instances -

    netperf -t TCP_RR -l 60 -s 5 -H <host> -- -r81920,81920

Transactions per second:
    Before change: 1,367.11
    After  change: 1,470.65

Mahesh Bandewar f05b42eaa2 bonding: Added bond_tlb_xmit() for tlb mode.
Re-organized the xmit function for the lb mode separating tlb xmit
from the alb mode. This will enable use of the hashing policies
like 802.3ad mode. Also extended use of xmit-hash-policy to tlb mode.

Now the tlb-mode defaults to BOND_XMIT_POLICY_LAYER2 if the xmit policy
module parameter is not set (just like 802.3ad, or Xor mode).

Monam Agarwal 8800a244fa drivers/net: Use RCU_INIT_POINTER(x, NULL) in bonding/bond_options.c
This patch replaces rcu_assign_pointer(x, NULL) with RCU_INIT_POINTER(x, NULL)

The rcu_assign_pointer() ensures that the initialization of a structure
is carried out before storing a pointer to that structure.
And in the case of the NULL pointer, there is no structure to initialize.
So, rcu_assign_pointer(p, NULL) can be safely converted to RCU_INIT_POINTER(p, NULL)

Veaceslav Falico 3fe68df97c bonding: always set recv_probe to bond_arp_rcv in arp monitor
Currently we only set bond_arp_rcv() if we're using arp_validate, however
this makes us skip updating last_arp_rx if we're not validating incoming
ARPs - thus, if arp_validate is off, last_arp_rx will never be updated.

Fix this by always setting up recv_probe = bond_arp_rcv, even if we're not
using arp_validate.

Veaceslav Falico 13ac34a886 bonding: permit using arp_validate with non-ab modes
Currently it's disabled because it's sometimes hard, in typical configs, to
make it work - because of the nature how the loadbalance modes work - as
it's hard to deliver valid arp replies to correct slaves by the switch.

However we still can use arp_validation in loadbalance with several other
configs, per example with arp_validate == 2 for backup with one broadcast
domain, without the switch(es) doing any balancing - this way we'd be (a
bit more) sure that the slave is up.

So, enable it to let users decide which one works/suits them best. Also
correct the mode limitation from BOND_OPT_ARP_VALIDATE.

Nikolay Aleksandrov 0911736245 bonding: add infrastructure for an option API
This patch adds the necessary basic infrastructure to support
centralized and unified option manipulation API for the bonding. The new
structure bond_option will be used to describe each option with its
dependencies on modes which will be checked automatically thus removing a
lot of duplicated code. Also automatic range checking is added for
some options. Currently the option setting function requires RTNL to
be acquired prior to calling it, since many options already rely on RTNL
it seemed like the best choice to protect all against common race
conditions.
In order to add an option the following steps need to be done:
1. Add an entry BOND_OPT_<option> to bond_options.h so it gets a unique id
   and a bit corresponding to the id
2. Add a bond_option entry to the bond_opts[] array in bond_options.c which
   describes the option, its dependencies and its manipulation function
3. Add code to export the option through sysfs and/or as a module parameter
   (the sysfs export will be made automatically in the future)

The options can have different flags set, currently the following are
supported:
BOND_OPTFLAG_NOSLAVES - require that the bond device has no slaves prior
                        to setting the option
BOND_OPTFLAG_IFDOWN - require that the bond device is down prior to
                      setting the option
BOND_OPTFLAG_RAWVAL - don't parse the value but return it raw for the
                      option to parse

There's a new value structure to describe different types of values
which can have the following flags:
BOND_VALFLAG_DEFAULT - marks the default option (permanent string alias
                       to this option is "default")
BOND_VALFLAG_MIN - the minimum value that this option can have
BOND_VALFLAG_MAX - the maximum value that this option can have

An example would be nice here, so if we have an option which can have
the values "off"(2), "special"(4, default) and supports a range, say
16 - 32, it should be defined as follows:
"off", 2,
"special", 4, BOND_VALFLAG_DEFAULT,
"rangemin", 16, BOND_VALFLAG_MIN,
"rangemax", 32, BOND_VALFLAG_MAX
So we have the valid intervals: [2, 2], [4, 4], [16, 32]
Also the valid strings: "off" = 2, "special" and "default" = 4
                        "rangemin" = 16, "rangemax" = 32

BOND_VALFLAG_(MIN|MAX) can be used to specify a valid range for an
option, if MIN is omitted then 0 is considered as a minimum. If an
exact match is found in the values[] table it will be returned,
otherwise the range is tried (if available).

The option parameter passing is done by using a special structure called
bond_opt_value which can take either a string or a value to parse. One
of the bond_opt_init(val|str) macros should be used depending on which
one does the user want to parse (string or value). Then a call to
__bond_opt_set should be done under RTNL.

Hannes Frederic Sowa 809fa972fd reciprocal_divide: update/correction of the algorithm
Jakub Zawadzki noticed that some divisions by reciprocal_divide()
were not correct [1][2], which he could also show with BPF code
after divisions are transformed into reciprocal_value() for runtime
invariance which can be passed to reciprocal_divide() later on;
reverse in BPF dump ended up with a different, off-by-one K in
some situations.

This has been fixed by Eric Dumazet in commit aee636c480
("bpf: do not use reciprocal divide"). This follow-up patch
improves reciprocal_value() and reciprocal_divide() to work in
all cases by using Granlund and Montgomery method, so that also
future use is safe and without any non-obvious side-effects.
Known problems with the old implementation were that division by 1
always returned 0 and some off-by-ones when the dividend and divisor
where very large. This seemed to not be problematic with its
current users, as far as we can tell. Eric Dumazet checked for
the slab usage, we cannot surely say so in the case of flex_array.
Still, in order to fix that, we propose an extension from the
original implementation from commit 6a2d7a955d resp. [3][4],
by using the algorithm proposed in "Division by Invariant Integers
Using Multiplication" [5], Torbjörn Granlund and Peter L.
Montgomery, that is, pseudocode for q = n/d where q, n, d is in
u32 universe:

1) Initialization:

  int l = ceil(log_2 d)
  uword m' = floor((1<<32)*((1<<l)-d)/d)+1
  int sh_1 = min(l,1)
  int sh_2 = max(l-1,0)

2) For q = n/d, all uword:

  uword t = (n*m')>>32
  q = (t+((n-t)>>sh_1))>>sh_2

The assembler implementation from Agner Fog [6] also helped a lot
while implementing. We have tested the implementation on x86_64,
ppc64, i686, s390x; on x86_64/haswell we're still half the latency
compared to normal divide.

Joint work with Daniel Borkmann.
