Reading /proc/net/snmp6 on a machine with a lot of cpus is very
expensive (can be ~88000 us).

This is because ICMPV6MSG MIB uses 4096 bytes per cpu, and folding
values for all possible cpus can read 16 Mbytes of memory (32MBytes on
non x86 arches)

ICMP messages are not considered as fast path on a typical server, and
eventually few cpus handle them anyway. We can afford an atomic
operation instead of using percpu data.

This saves 4096 bytes per cpu and per network namespace.

This patch introduces new network device called team. It supposes to be
very fast, simple, userspace-driven alternative to existing bonding
driver.

Userspace library called libteam with couple of demo apps is available
here:
https://github.com/jpirko/libteam
Note it's still in its dipers atm.

team<->libteam use generic netlink for communication. That and rtnl
suppose to be the only way to configure team device, no sysfs etc.

Python binding of libteam was recently introduced.
Daemon providing arpmon/miimon active-backup functionality will be
introduced shortly. All what's necessary is already implemented in
kernel team driver.

v7->v8:
	- check ndo_ndo_vlan_rx_[add/kill]_vid functions before calling
	  them.
	- use dev_kfree_skb_any() instead of dev_kfree_skb()

v6->v7:
	- transmit and receive functions are not checked in hot paths.
	  That also resolves memory leak on transmit when no port is
	  present

v5->v6:
	- changed couple of _rcu calls to non _rcu ones in non-readers

v4->v5:
	- team_change_mtu() uses team->lock while travesing though port
	  list
	- mac address changes are moved completely to jurisdiction of
	  userspace daemon. This way the daemon can do FOM1, FOM2 and
	  possibly other weird things with mac addresses.
	  Only round-robin mode sets up all ports to bond's address then
	  enslaved.
	- Extended Kconfig text

v3->v4:
	- remove redundant synchronize_rcu from __team_change_mode()
	- revert "set and clear of mode_ops happens per pointer, not per
	  byte"
	- extend comment of function __team_change_mode()

v2->v3:
	- team_change_mtu() uses rcu version of list traversal to unwind
	- set and clear of mode_ops happens per pointer, not per byte
	- port hashlist changed to be embedded into team structure
	- error branch in team_port_enter() does cleanup now
	- fixed rtln->rtnl

v1->v2:
	- modes are made as modules. Makes team more modular and
	  extendable.
	- several commenters' nitpicks found on v1 were fixed
	- several other bugs were fixed.
	- note I ignored Eric's comment about roundrobin port selector
	  as Eric's way may be easily implemented as another mode (mode
	  "random") in future.

OK I found it, I did some extra tests and believe its ready.

[PATCH net-next] ipv4: IP_PKTINFO doesnt need dst reference

When a socket uses IP_PKTINFO notifications, we currently force a dst
reference for each received skb. Reader has to access dst to get needed
information (rt_iif & rt_spec_dst) and must release dst reference.

We also forced a dst reference if skb was put in socket backlog, even
without IP_PKTINFO handling. This happens under stress/load.

We can instead store the needed information in skb->cb[], so that only
softirq handler really access dst, improving cache hit ratios.

This removes two atomic operations per packet, and false sharing as
well.

On a benchmark using a mono threaded receiver (doing only recvmsg()
calls), I can reach 720.000 pps instead of 570.000 pps.

IP_PKTINFO is typically used by DNS servers, and any multihomed aware
UDP application.

The driver used NET_IP_ALIGN to remove some additional padding inside of
the rx_fixup function. On many architectures NET_IP_ALIGN defaults to 2
which removed the correct amount of bytes.

On MCORE2-machines commit ea812ca1
introduces a change which sets NET_IP_ALIGN to 0 by default. Which
triggered the bug on these machines.

This fix introduces a new RXW_PADDING define and uses this instead of
NET_IP_ALIGN. The name was taken from the original SMSC7500 driver which
is provided by SMSC.
