Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops->ndo_init(). However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.
Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor().
The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.
netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.
netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.
Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().
This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.
If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit(). But
it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor().
This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.
However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev->destructor() will not be.
Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.
Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.
Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().
netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for
free_netdev().
netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().
Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit()
and netdev->priv_destructor().
And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

The gateway selection class variable is shared between different algorithm
versions. But the interpretation of the content is algorithm specific. The
initialization is therefore also algorithm specific.
But this was implemented incorrectly and the initialization for BATMAN_V
always overwrote the value previously written for BATMAN_IV. This could
only be avoided when BATMAN_V was disabled during compile time.
Using a special batadv_algo hook for this initialization avoids this
problem.

The network stack no longer uses the last_rx member of struct net_device
since the bonding driver switched to use its own private last_rx in
commit 9f24273837 ("bonding: use last_arp_rx in slave_last_rx()").
However, some drivers still (ab)use the field for their own purposes and
some driver just update it without actually using it.
Previously, there was an accompanying comment for the last_rx member
added in commit 4dc89133f4 ("net: add a comment on netdev->last_rx")
which asked drivers not to update is, unless really needed. However,
this commend was removed in commit f8ff080dac ("bonding: remove
useless updating of slave->dev->last_rx"), so some drivers added later
on still did update last_rx.
Remove all usage of last_rx and switch three drivers (sky2, atp and
smc91c92_cs) which actually read and write it to use their own private
copy in netdev_priv.
Compile-tested with allyesconfig and allmodconfig on x86 and arm.

With this patch, (re)broadcasting on a specific interfaces is avoided:
* No neighbor: There is no need to broadcast on an interface if there
is no node behind it.
* Single neighbor is source: If there is just one neighbor on an
interface and if this neighbor is the one we actually got this
broadcast packet from, then we do not need to echo it back.
* Single neighbor is originator: If there is just one neighbor on
an interface and if this neighbor is the originator of this
broadcast packet, then we do not need to echo it back.
Goodies for BATMAN V:
("Upgrade your BATMAN IV network to V now to get these for free!")
Thanks to the split of OGMv1 into two packet types, OGMv2 and ELP
that is, we can now apply the same optimizations stated above to OGMv2
packets, too.
Furthermore, with BATMAN V, rebroadcasts can be reduced in certain
multi interface cases, too, where BATMAN IV cannot. This is thanks to
the removal of the "secondary interface originator" concept in BATMAN V.

The throughput meter module is a simple, kernel-space replacement for
throughtput measurements tool like iperf and netperf. It is intended to
approximate TCP behaviour.
It is invoked through batctl: the protocol is connection oriented, with
cumulative acknowledgment and a dynamic-size sliding window.
The test *can* be interrupted by batctl. A receiver side timeout avoids
unlimited waitings for sender packets: after one second of inactivity, the
receiver abort the ongoing test.

To reduce the field pollution in our main batadv_priv data structure
we've already created some substructures so that we could group fields
in a convenient manner.
However gw_mode and gw_sel_class are still part of the main object.
More both fields to the GW private substructure.

The untagged vlan object is only destroyed when the interface is removed
via the legacy sysfs interface. But it also has to be destroyed when the
standard rtnl-link interface is used.

It is easier to understand that the returned value of a specific function
doesn't have to be 0 when the functions was successful when the actual
return type is bool. This is especially true when all surrounding functions
with return type int use negative values to return the error code.

When creating a soft interface, create it in the same netns as the
hard interface. Replace all references to init_net with the correct
name space for the interface being manipulated.

The batX soft interface should not be moved between network name
spaces. This is similar to bridges, bonds, tunnels, which are not
allowed to move between network namespaces.

The callers of batadv_interface_rx have to make sure that enough data can
be pulled from the skb when they read the batman-adv header. The only two
functions using it are either calling pskb_may_pull with hdr_size directly
(batadv_recv_bcast_packet) or indirectly via batadv_check_unicast_packet
(batadv_recv_unicast_packet).

The encapsulated ethernet and VLAN header may be outside the received
ethernet frame. Thus the skb buffer size has to be checked before it can be
parsed to find out if it encapsulates another batman-adv packet.

The batman-adv source code is the only place in the kernel which uses the
*_free_ref naming scheme for the *_put functions. Changing it to *_put
makes it more consistent and makes it easier to understand the connection
to the *_get functions.

batman-adv uses a self-written reference implementation which is just based
on atomic_t. This is less obvious when reading the code than kref and
therefore increases the change that the reference counting will be missed.

The maximum of hard_header_len and maximum of all needed_(head|tail)room of
all slave interfaces of a batman-adv device must be used to define the
batman-adv device needed_(head|tail)room. This is required to avoid too
small buffer problems when these slave devices try to send the encapsulated
packet in a tx path without the possibility to resize the skbuff.

(s|u)(8|16|32|64) are the preferred types in the kernel. The use of the
standard C99 types u?int(8|16|32|64)_t are objected by some people and even
checkpatch now warns about using them.
