Since we're now holding the rtnl during the entire dump operation, we can
remove additional locking for rtnl protected data. This patch does that
for all simple cases (dev_base_lock for dev_base walking, RCU protection
for FIB rule dumping).

The attached patch adds gratuitous arp filtering, more precisely: it
allows checking that the IPv4 source address matches the IPv4
destination address inside the ARP header. It also adds a check for the
hardware address type when matching MAC addresses (nothing critical,
just for better consistency).

This fixes an error in the calculation of t_ipi when X converges towards
very low sending rates (between 1 and 64 bytes per second).
Although this case may not sound likely, it can be reproduced by connecting,
hitting enter (1 byte sent) and waiting for some time, during which the
nofeedback timer halves the sending rate until finally it reaches the region
1..64 bytes/sec. Computing X is handled correctly (tested separately); but by
dividing X _before_ entering the calculation of t_ipi, X becomes zero as
a result. This in turn triggers a BUG condition caught in scaled_div().
Fixed by replacing with equivalent statement and explicit typecast for good
measure.
Calculation verified and effect of patch tested - reduced never below 1 byte
per 64 seconds afterwards, i.e. not allowing divide-by-zero.

This patchset based on work by Aji_Srinivas@emc.com provides allows
spanning tree to be controled from userspace. Like hotplug, it
uses call_usermodehelper when spanning tree is enabled so there
is no visible API change. If call to start usermode STP fails
it falls back to existing kernel STP.

While in the STP learning state, don't route packets; wait until
forwarding delay has expired. The purpose of the forwarding delay
is to detect loops in the network, and if a brouter started up
and started forwarding, it could cause a flood.

The skb transport pointer is currently used to specify the start
of the checksum region for transmit checksum offload. Unfortunately,
the same pointer is also used during receive side processing.
This creates a problem when we want to retransmit a received
packet with partial checksums since the skb transport pointer
would be overwritten.
This patch solves this problem by creating a new 16-bit csum_start
offset value to replace the skb transport header for the purpose
of checksums. This offset is calculated from skb->head so that
it does not have to change when skb->data changes.
No extra space is required since csum_offset itself fits within
a 16-bit word so we can use the other 16 bits for csum_start.
For backwards compatibility, just before we push a packet with
partial checksums off into the device driver, we set the skb
transport header to what it would have been under the old scheme.

esp_init_state doesn't account for the beet pseudo header in the header_len
calculation, which may result in undersized skbs hitting xfrm4_beet_output,
causing unnecessary reallocations in ip_finish_output2.
The skbs should still always have enough room to avoid causing
skb_under_panic in skb_push since we have at least 16 bytes available
from LL_RESERVED_SPACE in xfrm_state_check_space.
