A few drivers use dev_uc_sync/unsync to synchronize the
address lists from master down to slave/lower devices. In
some cases (bond/team) a single address list is synched down
to multiple devices. At the time of unsync, we have a leak
in these lower devices, because "synced" is treated as a
boolean and the address will not be unsynced for anything after
the first device/call.
Treat "synced" as a count (same as refcount) and allow all
unsync calls to work.

When a user adds bridge neighbors, allow him to specify VLAN id.
If the VLAN id is not specified, the neighbor will be added
for VLANs currently in the ports filter list. If no VLANs are
configured on the port, we use vlan 0 and only add 1 entry.

skb_gso_segment() is almost always called in tx path,
except for openvswitch. It calls this function when
it receives the packet and tries to queue it to user-space.
In this special case, the ->ip_summed check inside
skb_gso_segment() is no longer true, as ->ip_summed value
has different meanings on rx path.
This patch adjusts skb_gso_segment() so that we can at least
avoid such warnings on checksum.

net: provide a default dev->ethtool_ops
wireless core does not correctly assign ethtool_ops.
After alloc_netdev*() call, some cfg80211 drivers provide they own
ethtool_ops, but some do not. For them, wireless core provide generic
cfg80211_ethtool_ops, which is assigned in NETDEV_REGISTER notify call:
if (!dev->ethtool_ops)
dev->ethtool_ops = &cfg80211_ethtool_ops;
But after Eric's commit, dev->ethtool_ops is no longer NULL (on cfg80211
drivers without custom ethtool_ops), but points to &default_ethtool_ops.
In order to fix the problem, provide function which will overwrite
default_ethtool_ops and use it by wireless core.

This patch makes it so that we can support transmit packet steering without
sysfs needing to be enabled. The reason for making this change is to make
it so that a driver can make use of the XPS even while the sysfs portion of
the interface is not present.

This patch adds two functions, netif_reset_xps_queue and
netif_set_xps_queue. The main idea behind these two functions is to
provide a mechanism through which drivers can update their defaults in
regards to XPS.
Currently no such mechanism exists and as a result we cannot use XPS for
things such as ATR which would require a basic configuration to start in
which the Tx queues are mapped to CPUs via a 1:1 mapping. With this change
I am making it possible for drivers such as ixgbe to be able to use the XPS
feature by controlling the default configuration.

This change splits the core bits of netdev_pick_tx into a separate function.
The main idea behind this is to make this code accessible to select queue
functions when they decide to process the standard path instead of their
own custom path in their select queue routine.

This lists are supposed to serve for storing pointers to all upper devices.
Eventually it will replace dev->master pointer which is used for
bonding, bridge, team but it cannot be used for vlan, macvlan where
there might be multiple upper present. In case the upper link is
replacement for dev->master, it is marked with "master" flag.
New upper device list resolves this limitation. Also, the information
stored in lists is used for preventing looping setups like
"bond->somethingelse->samebond"

Using a seqlock for devnet_rename_seq is not a good idea,
as device_rename() can sleep.
As we hold RTNL, we dont need a protection for writers,
and only need a seqcount so that readers can catch a change done
