====================
A number of significant new features and optimizations for net-next/3.12.
Highlights are:
 * "Megaflows", an optimization that allows userspace to specify which
   flow fields were used to compute the results of the flow lookup.
   This allows for a major reduction in flow setups (the major
   performance bottleneck in Open vSwitch) without reducing flexibility.
 * Converting netlink dump operations to use RCU, allowing for
   additional parallelism in userspace.
 * Matching and modifying SCTP protocol fields.

Add a SYNPROXY for netfilter. The code is split into two parts, the synproxy
core with common functions and an address family specific target.

The SYNPROXY receives the connection request from the client, responds with
a SYN/ACK containing a SYN cookie and announcing a zero window and checks
whether the final ACK from the client contains a valid cookie.

It then establishes a connection to the original destination and, if
successful, sends a window update to the client with the window size
announced by the server.

Support for timestamps, SACK, window scaling and MSS options can be
statically configured as target parameters if the features of the server
are known. If timestamps are used, the timestamp value sent back to
the client in the SYN/ACK will be different from the real timestamp of
the server. In order to now break PAWS, the timestamps are translated in
the direction server->client.

Split out sequence number adjustments from NAT and move them to the conntrack
core to make them usable for SYN proxying. The sequence number adjustment
information is moved to a seperate extend. The extend is added to new
conntracks when a NAT mapping is set up for a connection using a helper.

As a side effect, this saves 24 bytes per connection with NAT in the common
case that a connection does not have a helper assigned.

As reported by Casper Gripenberg, in a bridged setup, using ip[6]t_REJECT
with the tcp-reset option sends out reset packets with the src MAC address
of the local bridge interface, instead of the MAC address of the intended
destination.  This causes some routers/firewalls to drop the reset packet
as it appears to be spoofed.  Fix this by bypassing ip[6]_local_out and
setting the MAC of the sender in the tcp reset packet.

This closes netfilter bugzilla #531.

Currently, the tcp_probe snooper can either filter packets by a given
port (handed to the module via module parameter e.g. port=80) or lets
all TCP traffic pass (port=0, default). When a port is specified, the
port number is tested against the sk's source/destination port. Thus,
if one of them matches, the information will be further processed for
the log.

As this is quite limited, allow for more advanced filtering possibilities
which can facilitate debugging/analysis with the help of the tcp_probe
snooper. Therefore, similarly as added to BPF machine in commit 7e75f93e
("pkt_sched: ingress socket filter by mark"), add the possibility to
use skb->mark as a filter.

If the mark is not being used otherwise, this allows ingress filtering
by flow (e.g. in order to track updates from only a single flow, or a
subset of all flows for a given port) and other things such as dynamic
logging and reconfiguration without removing/re-inserting the tcp_probe
module, etc. Simple example:

  insmod net/ipv4/tcp_probe.ko fwmark=8888 full=1
  ...
  iptables -A INPUT -i eth4 -t mangle -p tcp --dport 22 \
           --sport 60952 -j MARK --set-mark 8888
  [... sampling interval ...]
  iptables -D INPUT -i eth4 -t mangle -p tcp --dport 22 \
           --sport 60952 -j MARK --set-mark 8888

The current option to filter by a given port is still being preserved. A
similar approach could be done for the sctp_probe module as a follow-up.

Rewriting SCTP ports is expensive due to double-recalculation of the
