AF_IUCV socket programs may waste Linux storage, because af_iucv
allocates an skb whenever posted by the receive callback routine and
receives the message immediately.
Message receival is now postponed if data from previous callbacks has
not yet been transferred to the receiving socket program. Instead a
message handle is saved in a message queue as a reminder. Once
messages could be given to the receiving socket program, there is
an additional checking for entries in the message queue, followed
by skb allocation and message receival if applicable.

This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in
and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting. By
virtue of this all socket create methods are touched. In addition
the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if
you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace.
Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default
network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack
network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone
has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe.
Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the
exotic protocols are supported.
Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now
pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

The accept_queue of an af_iucv socket will be corrupted, if
adding and deleting of entries in this queue occurs at the
same time (connect request from one client, while accept call
is processed for another client).
Solution: add locking when updating accept_q

With the inital implementation we missed to implement a skb backlog
queue . The result is that socket receive processing tossed packets.
Since AF_IUCV connections are working synchronously it leads to
connection hangs. Problems with read, close and select also occured.
Using a skb backlog queue is fixing all of these problems .
