After TIPC doesn't depend on iocb argument in its internal
implementations of sendmsg() and recvmsg() hooks defined in proto
structure, no any user is using iocb argument in them at all now.
Then we can drop the redundant iocb argument completely from kinds of
implementations of both sendmsg() and recvmsg() in the entire
networking stack.

Brian reported crashes using IPv6 traffic with macvtap/veth combo.
I tracked the crashes in neigh_hh_output()
-> memcpy(skb->data - HH_DATA_MOD, hh->hh_data, HH_DATA_MOD);
Neighbour code assumes headroom to push Ethernet header is
at least 16 bytes.
It appears macvtap has only 14 bytes available on arches
where NET_IP_ALIGN is 0 (like x86)
Effect is a corruption of 2 bytes right before skb->head,
and possible crashes if accessing non existing memory.
This fix should also increase IPv4 performance, as paranoid code
in ip_finish_output2() wont have to call skb_realloc_headroom()

When VLAN is in use in macvtap_put_user, we end up setting
csum_start to the wrong place. The result is that the whoever
ends up doing the checksum setting will corrupt the packet instead
of writing the checksum to the expected location, usually this
means writing the checksum with an offset of -4.

IPv6 does not allow fragmentation by routers, so there is no
fragmentation ID in the fixed header. UFO for IPv6 requires the ID to
be passed separately, but there is no provision for this in the virtio
net protocol.
Until recently our software implementation of UFO/IPv6 generated a new
ID, but this was a bug. Now we will use ID=0 for any UFO/IPv6 packet
passed through a tap, which is even worse.
Unfortunately there is no distinction between UFO/IPv4 and v6
features, so disable UFO on taps and virtio_net completely until we
have a proper solution.
We cannot depend on VM managers respecting the tap feature flags, so
keep accepting UFO packets but log a warning the first time we do
this.

In macvtap device delete and open calls can race and
this causes a list curruption of the vlan queue_list.
The race intself is triggered by the idr accessors
that located the vlan device. The device is stored
into and removed from the idr under both an rtnl and
a mutex. However, when attempting to locate the device
in idr, only a mutex is taken. As a result, once cpu
perfoming a delete may take an rtnl and wait for the mutex,
while another cput doing an open() will take the idr
mutex first to fetch the device pointer and later take
an rtnl to add a queue for the device which may have
just gotten deleted.
With this patch, we now hold the rtnl for the duration
of the macvtap_open() call thus making sure that
open will not race with delete.

The following is a problematic configuration:
VM1: virtio-net device connected to macvtap0@eth0
VM2: e1000 device connect to macvtap1@eth0
The problem is is that virtio-net supports checksum offloading
and thus sends the packets to the host with CHECKSUM_PARTIAL set.
On the other hand, e1000 does not support any acceleration.
For small TCP packets (and this includes the 3-way handshake),
e1000 ends up receiving packets that only have a partial checksum
set. This causes TCP to fail checksum validation and to drop
packets. As a result tcp connections can not be established.
Commit 3e4f8b7873
macvtap: Perform GSO on forwarding path.
fixes this issue for large packets wthat will end up undergoing GSO.
This commit adds a check for the non-GSO case and attempts to
compute the checksum for partially checksummed packets in the
non-GSO case.

Macvtap device currently doesn not allow a user to capture
traffic on due to the fact that it steals the packets
from the network stack before the skb->dev is set correctly
on the receive side, and that use uses macvlan transmit
path directly on the send side. As a result, we never
get a change to give traffic to the taps while the correct
device is set in the skb.
This patch makes macvtap device behave almost exaclty like
macvlan. On the send side, we switch to using dev_queue_xmit().
On the receive side, to deliver packets to macvtap, we now
use netif_rx and dev_forward_skb just like macvlan. The only
differnce now is that macvtap has its own rx_handler which is
attached to the macvtap netdev. It is here that we now steal
the packet and provide it to the socket.
As a result, we can now capture traffic on the macvtap device:
tcpdump -i macvtap0
It also gives us the abilit to add tc actions to the macvtap
device and actually utilize different bandwidth management
queues on output.

We currently use hdr_len as a hint of head length which is advertised by
guest. But when guest advertise a very big value, it can lead to an 64K+
allocating of kmalloc() which has a very high possibility of failure when host
memory is fragmented or under heavy stress. The huge hdr_len also reduce the
effect of zerocopy or even disable if a gso skb is linearized in guest.
To solves those issues, this patch introduces an upper limit (PAGE_SIZE) of the
head, which guarantees an order 0 allocation each time.

We try to linearize part of the skb when the number of iov is greater than
MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This is not enough since each single vector may occupy more than
one pages, so zerocopy_sg_fromiovec() may still fail and may break the guest
network.
Solve this problem by calculate the pages needed for iov before trying to do
zerocopy and switch to use copy instead of zerocopy if it needs more than
MAX_SKB_FRAGS.
This is done through introducing a new helper to count the pages for iov, and
call uarg->callback() manually when switching from zerocopy to copy to notify
vhost.
We can do further optimization on top.
This bug were introduced from b92946e291
(macvtap: zerocopy: validate vectors before building skb).
