Since IPVS now has partial IPv6 support, this patch moves IPVS from
net/ipv4/ipvs to net/netfilter/ipvs. It's a result of:
$ git mv net/ipv4/ipvs net/netfilter
and adapting the relevant Kconfigs/Makefiles to the new path.

This patch merges the IPv4/IPv6 IPComp implementations since most
of the code is identical. As a result future enhancements will no
longer need to be duplicated.

Now the ESP uses the AEAD interface even for algorithms which are
not combined mode, we need to select CONFIG_CRYPTO_AUTHENC as
otherwise only combined mode algorithms will work.

This patch converts ESP to use the crypto_aead interface and in particular
the authenc algorithm. This lays the foundations for future support of
combined mode algorithms.

The FIB TRIE code has a bunch of statistics, but the code is hidden
behind an ifdef that was never implemented. Since it was dead code, it
was broken as well.
This patch fixes that by making it a config option.

Most of these fixes were already submitted for old kernel versions, and were
approved, but for some reason they never made it into the releases.
Because this is a consolidation of a couple old missed patches, it touches both
Kconfigs and documentation texts.

This patch provides generic Large Receive Offload (LRO) functionality
for IPv4/TCP traffic.
LRO combines received tcp packets to a single larger tcp packet and
passes them then to the network stack in order to increase performance
(throughput). The interface supports two modes: Drivers can either
pass SKBs or fragment lists to the LRO engine.

As mentioned in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5015
The helptext implies that this is on by default.
This may be true on some distros (Fedora/RHEL have it enabled
in /etc/sysctl.conf), but the kernel defaults to it off.

This is an implementation of TCP Illinois invented by Shao Liu
at University of Illinois. It is a another variant of Reno which adapts
the alpha and beta parameters based on RTT. The basic idea is to increase
window less rapidly as delay approaches the maximum. See the papers
and talks to get a more complete description.

YeAH-TCP is a sender-side high-speed enabled TCP congestion control
algorithm, which uses a mixed loss/delay approach to compute the
congestion window. It's design goals target high efficiency, internal,
RTT and Reno fairness, resilience to link loss while keeping network
elements load as low as possible.

It just obfuscates the code and adds limited value. And as Adrian
Bunk noticed, it lacked Kconfig help text too, so just kill it.

Now that all protocols have been made aware of the mark
field it can be moved out of the union thus simplyfing
its usage.
The config options in the IPv4/IPv6/DECnet subsystems
to enable respectively disable mark based routing only
obfuscate the code with ifdefs, the cost for the
additional comparison in the flow key is insignificant,
and most distributions have all these options enabled
by default anyway. Therefore it makes sense to remove
the config options and enable mark based routing by
default.

Change how default TCP congestion control is chosen. Don't just use
last installed module, instead allow selection during configuration,
and make sure and use the default regardless of load order.
