    ipsec: Put dumpers on the dump list · 12a169e7
    Herbert Xu authored
    Herbert Xu came up with the idea and the original patch to make
    xfrm_state dump list contain also dumpers:
    
    As it is we go to extraordinary lengths to ensure that states
    don't go away while dumpers go to sleep.  It's much easier if
    we just put the dumpers themselves on the list since they can't
    go away while they're going.
    
    I've also changed the order of addition on new states to prevent
    a never-ending dump.
    
    Timo Teräs improved the patch to apply cleanly to latest tree,
    modified iteration code to be more readable by using a common
    struct for entries in the list, implemented the same idea for
    xfrm_policy dumping and moved the af_key specific "last" entry
    caching to af_key.
