The kernel provides a "/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/<iface>/mtu"
file, which can temporarily record the mtu value of the last
received RA message when the RA mtu value is lower than the
interface mtu, but this proc has following limitations:
(1) when the interface mtu (/sys/class/net/<iface>/mtu) is
updeated, mtu6 (/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/<iface>/mtu) will
be updated to the value of interface mtu;
(2) mtu6 (/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/<iface>/mtu) only affect
ipv6 connection, and not affect ipv4.
Therefore, when the mtu option is carried in the RA message,
there will be a problem that the user sometimes cannot obtain
RA mtu value correctly by reading mtu6.
After this patch set, if a RA message carries the mtu option,
you can send a netlink msg which nlmsg_type is RTM_GETLINK,
and then by parsing the attribute of IFLA_INET6_RA_MTU to
get the mtu value carried in the RA message received on the
inet6 device. In addition, you can also get a link notification
when ra_mtu is updated so it doesn't have to poll.
In this way, if the MTU values that the device receives from
the network in the PCO IPv4 and the RA IPv6 procedures are
different, the user can obtain the correct ipv6 ra_mtu value
and compare the value of ra_mtu and ipv4 mtu, then the device
can use the lower MTU value for both IPv4 and IPv6.

Currently, there are many drivers who support CQE mode configuration,
some configure it as a fixed when initialized, some provide an
interface to change it by ethtool private flags. In order to make it
more generic, add two new 'ETHTOOL_A_COALESCE_USE_CQE_TX' and
'ETHTOOL_A_COALESCE_USE_CQE_RX' coalesce attributes, then these
parameters can be accessed by ethtool netlink coalesce uAPI.
Also add an new structure kernel_ethtool_coalesce, then the
new parameter can be added into this struct.

This reverts commit 819fbd3d8e.
It turns out that some user-space applications use these uapi header
files, so even though the only user of the interface is an old driver
that was moved to staging, moving the header files causes unnecessary
pain.
Generally, we really don't want user space to use kernel headers
directly (exactly because it causes pain when we re-organize), and
instead copy them as needed. But these things happen, and the headers
were in the uapi directory, so I guess it's not entirely unreasonable.

The per-vlan router option controls the port/vlan and host vlan entries'
mcast router config. The global option controlled only the host vlan
config, but that is unnecessary and incosistent as it's not really a
global vlan option, but rather bridge option to control host router
config, so convert BRIDGE_VLANDB_GOPTS_MCAST_ROUTER to
BRIDGE_VLANDB_ENTRY_MCAST_ROUTER which can be used to control both host
vlan and port vlan mcast router config.

This patch added and managed a new per endpoint flag, named
MPTCP_PM_ADDR_FLAG_FULLMESH.
In mptcp_pm_create_subflow_or_signal_addr(), if such flag is set, instead
of:
remote_address((struct sock_common *)sk, &remote);
fill a temporary allocated array of all known remote address. After
releaseing the pm lock loop on such array and create a subflow for each
remote address from the given local.
Note that the we could still use an array even for non 'fullmesh'
endpoint: with a single entry corresponding to the primary MPC subflow
remote address.

Add support for dumping global IPv6 querier state, we dump the state
only if our own querier is enabled or there has been another external
querier which has won the election. For the bridge global state we use
a new attribute IFLA_BR_MCAST_QUERIER_STATE and embed the state inside.
The structure is:
[IFLA_BR_MCAST_QUERIER_STATE]
`[BRIDGE_QUERIER_IPV6_ADDRESS] - ip address of the querier
`[BRIDGE_QUERIER_IPV6_PORT] - bridge port ifindex where the querier
was seen (set only if external querier)
`[BRIDGE_QUERIER_IPV6_OTHER_TIMER] - other querier timeout
IPv4 and IPv6 attributes are embedded at the same level of
IFLA_BR_MCAST_QUERIER_STATE. If we didn't dump anything we cancel the nest
and return.

iwlmei allows to integrate with the CSME firmware. There are
flows that are prioprietary for this purpose:
* Get the information of the AP the CSME firmware is connected
to. This is useful when we need to speed up the connection
process in case the CSME firmware has a TCP connection
that must be kept alive across the ownership transition.
* Forbid roaming, which will happen when the CSME firmware
wants to tell the user space not disrupt the connection.
* Request ownership, upon driver boot when the CSME firmware
owns the device. This is a notification sent by the kernel.
All those commands are expected to be used by any software
managing the connection (mainly NetworkManager). Those commands
are expected to be used only in case the CSME firmware owns
the device and doesn't want to release the device unless the
host made sure that it can keep the connectivity.
Here are the steps of the expected flow:
1) The machine boots while AMT has an active TCP connection
2) iwlwifi starts and tries to access the device
3) The device is not available because of the active TCP
connection. (If there are no active connections, the CSME
firmware would have allowed iwlwifi to use the device)
Note that all the steps up to here don't involve iwlmei. All
this happens in iwlwifi (in iwl_pcie_prepare_card_hw).
4) iwlmei establishes a connection to the CSME firmware (through
SAP)
Here iwlwifi uses iwlmei to access the device's capabilities
(since it can't touch the device), but this is not relevant
for the vendor commands.
5) The CSME firmware tells iwlmei that it uses the NIC and
that there is an acitve TCP connection, and hence, the
host needs to think twice before asking the CSME firmware
to release the device
6) iwlmei tells iwlwifi to report HW RFKILL with a special
reason
Up to here, there was no user space involved.
7) The user space (NetworkManager) boots and sees that the
device is in RFKILL because the host doesn't own the
device
8) The user space asks the kernel what AP the CSME firmware
is connected to (with the first vendor command mentionned
above)
9) The user space checks if it has a profile that matches the
reply from the CSME firmware
10) The user space installs a network to the wpa_supplicant
with a specific BSSID and a specific frequency
11) The user space prevents any type of full scan
12) The user space asks iwlmei to request ownership on the
device (with the third vendor command)
13) iwlmei request ownership from the CSME firmware
14) The CSME firmware grants ownership
15) iwlmei tells iwlwifi to lift the RFKILL
16) RFKILL OFF is reported to userspace
17) The host boots the device, loads the firwmare, and
connect to a specific BSSID without scanning including IP
in less than 600ms (this is what I measured, of course
it depends on many factors)
18) The host reports to the CSME firmware that there is a
connection
19) The TCP connection is preserved and the host has now
connectivity
20) Later, the TCP connection to the CSME firmware is
terminated
21) The CSME firmware tells iwlmei that it is now free to
do whatever it likes
22) iwlwifi sends the second vendor command to tell the
user space that it can remove the special network
configuration and pick any SSID / BSSID it likes.

Embed the standard multicast router port export by br_rports_fill_info()
into a new global vlan attribute BRIDGE_VLANDB_GOPTS_MCAST_ROUTER_PORTS.
In order to have the same format for the global bridge mcast context and
the per-vlan mcast context we need a double-nesting:
- BRIDGE_VLANDB_GOPTS_MCAST_ROUTER_PORTS
- MDBA_ROUTER
Currently we don't compare router lists, if any router port exists in
the bridge mcast contexts we consider their option sets as different and
export them separately.
In addition we export the router port vlan id when dumping similar to
the router port notification format.
