In all the cases we already hold bond->lock for reading, so the slave
can't get away and the check != NULL is sufficient. curr_active_slave
can still change after the read_lock is unlocked prior to use of the
dereferenced value, so there's no need for it. It either contains a
valid slave which we use (and can't get away), or it is NULL which is
checked.
In some places the read_lock of curr_slave_lock was left because we need
it not to change while performing some action (e.g. syncing current
active slave's addresses, sending ARP requests through the active slave)
such cases will be dealt with individually while converting to RCU.

This patch aims to remove struct bonding's first_slave and struct
slave's next and prev pointers, and replace them with the standard Linux
list API. The old macros are converted to list API as well and some new
primitives are available now. The checks if there're slaves that used
slave_cnt have been replaced by the list_empty macro.
Also a few small style fixes, changing longest -> shortest line in local
variable declarations, leaving an empty line before return and removing
unnecessary brackets.
This is the first step to gradual RCU conversion.

Delete 2001::804/64 won't cause prefix route deleted as well as rt in (3)
destinate to 2001::806 with source address as 2001::804/64. That's because
2001::803/64 is still alive, which make onlink=1 in ipv6_del_addr, this is
where the substantial difference between same prefix configuration and
different prefix configuration :) So packet are still transmitted out to
2001::806 with source address as 2001::804/64.
So bump genid will clear rt in (3), and up layer protocol will eventually
find the right one for themselves.

On very rare occasions, repeated load/unload stress test in the presence of
our storage driver (bnx2i/bnx2fc) causes a kernel panic in bnx2x code
(NULL pointer dereference). Stack traces indicate the issue happens during MAC
configuration; thorough code review showed that indeed several races exist
in which one thread can iterate over the list of configured MACs while another
deletes entries from the same list.
This patch adds a varient on the single-writer/Multiple-reader lock mechanism -
It utilizes an already exsiting bottom-half lock, using it so that Whenever
a writer is unable to continue due to the existence of another writer/reader,
it pends its request for future deliverance.
The writer / last readers will check for the existence of such requests and
perform them instead of the original initiator.
This prevents the writer from having to sleep while waiting for the lock
to be accessible, which might cause deadlocks given the locks already
held by the writer.
Another result of this patch is that setting of Rx Mode is now made in
sleepable context - Setting of Rx Mode is made under a bottom-half lock, which
was always nontrivial for the bnx2x driver, as the HW/FW configuration requires
wait for completions.
Since sleep was impossible (due to the sleepless-context), various mechanisms
were utilized to prevent the calling thread from sleep, but the truth was that
when the caller thread (i.e, the one calling ndo_set_rx_mode()) returned, the
Rx mode was still not set in HW/FW.
bnx2x_set_rx_mode() will now overtly schedule for the Rx changes to be
configured by the sp_rtnl_task which hold the RTNL lock and is sleepable
context.

After commit 4aa5dee4d9 ("net: convert resend IGMP to notifier event")
we try to acquire rtnl in bond_resend_igmp_join_requests but it can be
scheduled with rtnl already held (e.g. when bond_change_active_slave is
called with rtnl) causing a loop of immediate reschedules + calls because
rtnl_trylock fails each time since it's being already held.
For me this issue leads to system hangs very easy:
modprobe bonding; ifconfig bond0 up; ifenslave bond0 eth0; rmmod
bonding;
The fix is to introduce a small (1 jiffy) delay which is enough for the
sections holding rtnl to finish without putting any strain on the system.
Also adjust the timer in bond_change_active_slave to be 1 jiffy, since
most of the time it's called with rtnl already held.

The initial driver support was for a single mPIPE shim on the chip
(as is the case for the Gx36 hardware). The Gx72 chip has two mPIPE
shims, so we extend the driver to handle that case.

The code used to call napi_disable() in an interrupt handler
(from smp_call_function), which in turn could call msleep().
Unfortunately you can't sleep in an interrupt context.
Luckily it turns out all the NAPI support functions are
just operating on data structures and not on any deeply
per-cpu data, so we can arrange to set up and tear down all
the NAPI state on the core driving the process, and just
do the IRQ enable/disable as a smp_call_function thing.

This change allows the user to configure various features of the tile
networking drivers on and off. There is no change to the default
initialization state of either the tilegx or tilepro drivers.
Neither driver needs the ndo_fix_features or ndo_set_features callbacks,
since the generic code already handles the dependencies for
fix_features, and there is no hardware state to tweak in set_features.

David suggested to add a BUG_ON() to catch if some layer
sets skb->sk pointer without a corresponding destructor.
As skb can sit in a queue, it's mandatory to make sure the
socket cannot disappear, and it's usually done by taking a
reference on the socket, then releasing it from the skb
destructor.
This patch is a follow-up to commit c34a761231
("net: skb_orphan() changes") and will be reverted after
catching all possible offenders if any.

With the addition of the suppress operation
(7764a45a8f ("fib_rules: add .suppress
operation") we rely on accurate error reporting of the fib_rules.actions.
fib6_rule_action always returned -EAGAIN in case we could not find a
matching route and 0 if a rule was matched. This also included a match
for blackhole or prohibited rule actions which could get suppressed by
the new logic.
So adapt fib6_rule_action to always return the correct error code as
its counterpart fib4_rule_action does. This also fixes a possiblity of
nullptr-deref where we don't find a table, thus rt == NULL. Because
the condition rt != ip6_null_entry still holdes it seems we could later
get a nullptr bug on dereference rt->dst.
v2:
a) Fixed a brain fart in the commit msg (the rule => a table, etc). No
changes to the patch.

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.
Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.
