It turns out that copying a 16-byte area at ~800k times a second
can be really expensive :) This patch redesigns the frags GRO
interface to avoid copying that area twice.
The two disciples of the frags interface have been converted.

This patch adds GRO interfaces for hardware-assisted VLAN reception.
With this in place we're now at parity with LRO as far as the
interface is concerned. That is, you can now take any LRO driver
and convert it over to GRO.
As the CB memory clashes with GRO's use of CB, I've removed it
entirely by storing dev in skb->dev. This is OK because VLAN
gets called first thing in netif_receive_skb and skb->dev is
not used in between us calling netif_rx and netif_receive_skb
getting called.

The changes to deliver hardware accelerated VLAN packets to packet
sockets (commit bc1d0411) caused a warning for non-NAPI drivers.
The __vlan_hwaccel_rx() function is called directly from the drivers
RX function, for non-NAPI drivers that means its still in RX IRQ
context:

Split hardware accelerated VLAN reception into two parts to fix this:
- __vlan_hwaccel_rx just stores the VLAN TCI and performs the VLAN
device lookup, then calls netif_receive_skb()/netif_rx()
- vlan_hwaccel_do_receive(), which is invoked by netif_receive_skb()
in softirq context, performs the real reception and delivery to
packet sockets.

Use a real skb member to store the skb to avoid clashes with qdiscs,
which are allowed to use the cb area themselves. As currently only real
devices that consume the skb set the NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_TX flag, no explicit
invalidation is neccessary.
The new member fills a hole on 64 bit, the skb layout changes from:
__u32 mark; /* 172 4 */
sk_buff_data_t transport_header; /* 176 4 */
sk_buff_data_t network_header; /* 180 4 */
sk_buff_data_t mac_header; /* 184 4 */

/* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

- vlan_dev_reorder_header() is only called on the receive path after
calling skb_share_check(). This means we can use skb_cow() since
all we need is a writable header.
- vlan_dev_hard_header() includes a work-around for some apparently
broken out of tree MPLS code. The hard_header functions can expect
to always have a headroom of at least there own hard_header_len
available, so the reallocation check is unnecessary.
- __vlan_put_tag() can use skb_cow_head() to avoid the skb_unshare()
copy when the header is writable.

The VLAN code contains multiple spots that use tag, id and tci as
identifiers for arguments and variables incorrectly and they actually
contain or are expected to contain something different. Additionally
types are used inconsistently (unsigned short vs u16) and identifiers
are sometimes capitalized.
- consistently use u16 for storing TCI, ID or QoS values
- consistently use vlan_id and vlan_tci for storing the respective values
- remove capitalization
- add kdoc comment to netif_hwaccel_{rx,receive_skb}

The function is huge and included at least once in every VLAN acceleration
capable driver. Uninline it; to avoid having drivers depend on the VLAN
module, the function is always built in statically when VLAN is enabled.
With all VLAN acceleration capable drivers that build on x86_64 enabled,
this results in:

Lennert Buytenhek points out that the VLAN code incorrectly adjusts
skb->network_header to point in the middle of the VLAN header and
additionally tries to adjust skb->mac_header without checking for
validity.
The network_header should not be touched at all since we're only
adding headers in front of it, mac_header adjustments are not
necessary at all.

Add GVRP support for dynamically registering VLANs with switches.
By default GVRP is disabled because we only support the applicant-only
participant model, which means it should not be enabled on vlans that
are members of a bridge. Since there is currently no way to cleanly
determine that, the user is responsible for enabling it.
The code is pretty small and low impact, its wrapped in a config
option though because it depends on the GARP implementation and
the STP core.

Currently vlan group is searched using one key - the ifindex.
We'll have to lookup the vlan_group by two keys - ifindex and
net. Turning the vlan_group lookup key to struct net_device
pointer will make this process easier.
Besides, this will eliminate one more place in the networking,
that assumes that indexes are unique in the kernel.

Currently each vlan_groupd contains 8 pointers on arrays with 512
pointers on struct net_device each :) Such a construction "in many
cases ... wastes memory".
My proposal is to allow for some of these arrays pointers be NULL,
meaning that there are no devices in it. When a new device is added
to the vlan_group, the appropriate array is allocated.
The check in vlan_group_get_device's is safe, since the pointer
vg->vlan_devices_arrays[x] can only switch from NULL to not-NULL.
The vlan_group_prealloc_vid() is guarded with rtnl lock and is
also safe.
I've checked (I hope that) all the places, that use these arrays
and found, that the register_vlan_dev is the only place, that can
put a vlan device on an empty vlan_group.
Rough calculations shows, that after the patch a setup with a
single vlan dev (or up to 512 vlans with sequential vids) will
occupy approximately 8 times less memory.
The question I have is - does this patch makes sense, or a totally
new structures are required to store the vlan_devs?

Keep track of the number of VLAN devices in a vlan group. This allows
to have the caller sense when the group is going to be destroyed and
stop using it, which in turn allows to remove the wrapper around
unregister_vlan_dev for the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier and avoid
iterating over all possible VLAN ids whenever a device in unregistered.
Also fix what looks like a use-after-free (but is actually safe since
we're holding the RTNL), the real_dev reference should not be dropped
while we still use it.

This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables. The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl
were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.
vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.
So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.
For now the ifindex generator is left global.
Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.
At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.
