62dd93181a [IPV6] NDISC: Set per-entry is_router flag in Proxy NA.
We have sent NA with router flag from the node-wide forwarding
configuration.  This is not appropriate for proxy NA, and it should be
set according to each proxy entry's configuration.

This is used by Mobile IPv6 home agent to support physical home link
in acting as a proxy router for mobile node which is not a router,
for example.

Based on MIPL2 kernel patch.

fda9ef5d67 [NET]: Fix sk->sk_filter field access
Function sk_filter() is called from tcp_v{4,6}_rcv() functions with arg
needlock = 0, while socket is not locked at that moment. In order to avoid
this and similar issues in the future, use rcu for sk->sk_filter field read
protection.

9e762a4a89 [NET]: Introduce RTA_TABLE/FRA_TABLE attributes
Introduce RTA_TABLE route attribute and FRA_TABLE routing rule attribute
to hold 32 bit routing table IDs. Usespace compatibility is provided by
continuing to accept and send the rtm_table field, but because of its
limited size it can only carry the low 8 bits of the table ID. This
implies that if larger IDs are used, _all_ userspace programs using them
need to use RTA_TABLE.
