Eric Dumazet suggested to allow users to modify max GRO packet size.
We have seen GRO being disabled by users of appliances (such as
wifi access points) because of claimed bufferbloat issues,
or some work arounds in sch_cake, to split GRO/GSO packets.
Instead of disabling GRO completely, one can chose to limit
the maximum packet size of GRO packets, depending on their
latency constraints.
This patch adds a per device gro_max_size attribute
that can be changed with ip link command.
ip link set dev eth0 gro_max_size 16000

Use flow_indr_dev_register/flow_indr_dev_setup_offload to
offload tc action.
We need to call tc_cleanup_flow_action to clean up tc action entry since
in tc_setup_action, some actions may hold dev refcnt, especially the mirror
action.

We have 100+ syzbot reports about netns being dismantled too soon,
still unresolved as of today.
We think a missing get_net() or an extra put_net() is the root cause.
In order to find the bug(s), and be able to spot future ones,
this patch adds CONFIG_NET_NS_REFCNT_TRACKER and new helpers
to precisely pair all put_net() with corresponding get_net().
To use these helpers, each data structure owning a refcount
should also use a "netns_tracker" to pair the get and put.

net device are refcounted. Over the years we had numerous bugs
caused by imbalanced dev_hold() and dev_put() calls.
The general idea is to be able to precisely pair each decrement with
a corresponding prior increment. Both share a cookie, basically
a pointer to private data storing stack traces.
This patch adds dev_hold_track() and dev_put_track().
To use these helpers, each data structure owning a refcount
should also use a "netdevice_tracker" to pair the hold and put.
netdevice_tracker dev_tracker;
...
dev_hold_track(dev, &dev_tracker, GFP_ATOMIC);
...
dev_put_track(dev, &dev_tracker);
Whenever a leak happens, we will get precise stack traces
of the point dev_hold_track() happened, at device dismantle phase.
We will also get a stack trace if too many dev_put_track() for the same
netdevice_tracker are attempted.
This is guarded by CONFIG_NET_DEV_REFCNT_TRACKER option.

.ndo_change_proto_down was added seemingly to enable out-of-tree
implementations. Over 2.5yrs later we still have no real users
upstream. Hardwire the generic implementation for now, we can
revert once real users materialize. (rocker is a test vehicle,
not a user.)
We need to drop the optimization on the sysfs side, because
unlike ndos priv_flags will be changed at runtime, so we'd
need READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE everywhere..

dev->gso_max_segs is written under RTNL protection, or when the device is
not yet visible, but is read locklessly.
Add netif_set_gso_max_segs() helper.
Add the READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() pairs, and use netif_set_gso_max_segs()
where we can to better document what is going on.

Commit 406f42fa0d ("net-next: When a bond have a massive amount
of VLANs...") introduced a rbtree for faster Ethernet address look
up. We converted all users to make modifications via appropriate
helpers, make netdev->dev_addr const.
The update helpers need to upcast from the buffer to
struct netdev_hw_addr.

tx_timeout_show() assumed dev_watchdog() would stop all

of the queue->_xmit_lock.
As we want to no longer disrupt transmits, we use an
