Guillaume Nault f55fbb6afb ipv4: Reject routes specifying ECN bits in rtm_tos
Use the new dscp_t type to replace the fc_tos field of fib_config, to
ensure IPv4 routes aren't influenced by ECN bits when configured with
non-zero rtm_tos.

Before this patch, IPv4 routes specifying an rtm_tos with some of the
ECN bits set were accepted. However they wouldn't work (never match) as
IPv4 normally clears the ECN bits with IPTOS_RT_MASK before doing a FIB
lookup (although a few buggy code paths don't).

After this patch, IPv4 routes specifying an rtm_tos with any ECN bit
set is rejected.

Note: IPv6 routes ignore rtm_tos altogether, any rtm_tos is accepted,
but treated as if it were 0.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
