A while back there was a discussion regarding the rt_secret_interval timer.
Given that we've had the ability to do emergency route cache rebuilds for awhile
now, based on a statistical analysis of the various hash chain lengths in the
cache, the use of the flush timer is somewhat redundant. This patch removes the
rt_secret_interval sysctl, allowing us to rely solely on the statistical
analysis mechanism to determine the need for route cache flushes.

Add prefetches of the skb and the next rx descriptor to speed up rx path.
Use prefetchw() for the skb [suggested by Eric Dumazet].
The rx descriptor is in skb->data which is mapped for streaming mode DMA.
Eric Dumazet pointed out that we should not prefetch the data before
dma_sync. So we prefetch only if dma_sync is no_op on the system.

Introduce ____napi_schedule() helper for callers in irq disabled
contexts. rps_trigger_softirq() becomes a leaf function.
Use container_of() in process_backlog() instead of accessing per_cpu
address.
Use a custom inlined version of __napi_complete() in process_backlog()
to avoid one locked instruction :
only current cpu owns and manipulates this napi,
and NAPI_STATE_SCHED is the only possible flag set on backlog.
we can use a plain write instead of clear_bit(),
and we dont need an smp_mb() memory barrier, since RPS is on,
backlog is protected by a spinlock.

Adding addresses and ports to the short packet log message,

Based on Andy's work, but I modified a lot.
Similar to the patch for bridge, this patch does:
1) implement the 2 methods to support netpoll for bonding;
2) modify netpoll during forwarding packets via bonding;
3) disable netpoll support of bonding when a netpoll-unabled device
is added to bonding;
4) enable netpoll support when all underlying devices support netpoll.

This whole patchset is for adding netpoll support to bridge and bonding
devices. I already tested it for bridge, bonding, bridge over bonding,
and bonding over bridge. It looks fine now.
To make bridge and bonding support netpoll, we need to adjust
some netpoll generic code. This patch does the following things:
1) introduce two new priv_flags for struct net_device:
IFF_IN_NETPOLL which identifies we are processing a netpoll;
IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL is used to disable netpoll support for a device
at run-time;
2) introduce one new method for netdev_ops:
->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() is used to clean up netpoll when a device is
removed.
3) introduce netpoll_poll_dev() which takes a struct net_device * parameter;
export netpoll_send_skb() and netpoll_poll_dev() which will be used later;
4) hide a pointer to struct netpoll in struct netpoll_info, ditto.
5) introduce ->real_dev for struct netpoll.
6) introduce a new status NETDEV_BONDING_DESLAE, which is used to disable
netconsole before releasing a slave, to avoid deadlocks.

This change increases the RX fifo size to 36K for standard frames and
decreases the TX fifo size to 4K. The reason for this change is that on
slower systems the RX is much more likely to backfill and need space than
the TX is. As long as the TX fifo is twice the size of the MTU we should
have more than enough TX fifo.
