The bridge loop avoidance (BLA) feature of batman-adv sends packets to
probe for Mesh/LAN packet loops. Those packets are not sent by real
clients and should therefore not be added to the translation table (TT).

All conflicts were simple overlapping changes except perhaps
for the Thunder driver.
That driver has a change_mtu method explicitly for sending
a message to the hardware. If that fails it returns an
error.
Normally a driver doesn't need an ndo_change_mtu method becuase those
are usually just range changes, which are now handled generically.
But since this extra operation is needed in the Thunder driver, it has
to stay.
However, if the message send fails we have to restore the original
MTU before the change because the entire call chain expects that if
an error is thrown by ndo_change_mtu then the MTU did not change.
Therefore code is added to nicvf_change_mtu to remember the original
MTU, and to restore it upon nicvf_update_hw_max_frs() failue.

It does not happen often, but may potentially happen when frequently
shutting down and reinitializing an interface. With some carefully
placed msleep()s/mdelay()s it can be reproduced easily.
The issue is, that on interface removal, any still running worker thread
of a forwarding packet will race with the interface purging routine to
free a forwarding packet. Temporarily giving up a spin-lock to be able
to sleep in the purging routine is not safe.
Furthermore, there is a potential general protection fault not just for
the purging side shown above, but also on the worker side: Temporarily
removing a forw_packet from the according forw_{bcast,bat}_list will make
it impossible for the purging routine to catch and cancel it.
# How this patch tries to fix it:
With this patch we split the queue purging into three steps: Step 1),
removing forward packets from the queue of an interface and by that
claim it as our responsibility to free.
Step 2), we are either lucky to cancel a pending worker before it starts
to run. Or if it is already running, we wait and let it do its thing,
except two things:
Through the claiming in step 1) we prevent workers from a) re-arming
themselves. And b) prevent workers from freeing packets which we still
hold in the interface purging routine.
Finally, step 3, we are sure that no forwarding packets are pending or
even running anymore on the interface to remove. We can then safely free
the claimed forwarding packets.

The data has to be retrieved when the hardif is added to batman-adv because
some of the wifi information for an hardif will only be available with rtnl

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.

Instead of latching onto the OGM period, this patch introduces a worker
dedicated to multicast TT and TVLV updates.
The reasoning is, that upon roaming especially the translation table
should be updated timely to minimize connectivity issues.
With BATMAN V, the idea is to greatly increase the OGM interval to
reduce overhead. Unfortunately, right now this could lead to
a bad user experience if multicast traffic is involved.
Therefore this patch introduces a fixed 500ms update interval for
multicast TT entries and the multicast TVLV.

Now genl_register_family() is the only thing (other than the
users themselves, perhaps, but I didn't find any doing that)
writing to the family struct.
In all families that I found, genl_register_family() is only
called from __init functions (some indirectly, in which case
I've add __init annotations to clarifly things), so all can
actually be marked __ro_after_init.
This protects the data structure from accidental corruption.

Static family IDs have never really been used, the only
use case was the workaround I introduced for those users
that assumed their family ID was also their multicast
group ID.
Additionally, because static family IDs would never be
reserved by the generic netlink code, using a relatively
low ID would only work for built-in families that can be
registered immediately after generic netlink is started,
which is basically only the control family (apart from
the workaround code, which I also had to add code for so
it would reserve those IDs)
Thus, anything other than GENL_ID_GENERATE is flawed and
luckily not used except in the cases I mentioned. Move
those workarounds into a few lines of code, and then get
rid of GENL_ID_GENERATE entirely, making it more robust.

The maximum MTU is defined via the slave devices of an batman-adv
interface. Thus it is not possible to calculate the max_mtu during the
creation of the batman-adv device when no slave devices are attached. Doing
so would for example break non-fragmentation setups which then
(incorrectly) allow an MTU of 1500 even when underlying device cannot
transport 1500 bytes + batman-adv headers.
Checking the dynamically calculated max_mtu via the minimum of the slave
devices MTU during .ndo_change_mtu is also used by the bridge interface.

As long as there is still a reference for a hard interface held, there might
still be a forwarding packet relying on its attributes.
Therefore avoid setting hard_iface->soft_iface to NULL when disabling a hard
interface.
This fixes the following, potential splat:
batman_adv: bat0: Interface deactivated: eth1
batman_adv: bat0: Removing interface: eth1
cgroup: new mount options do not match the existing superblock, will be ignored
batman_adv: bat0: Interface deactivated: eth3
batman_adv: bat0: Removing interface: eth3

What happened here is, that there was still a forw_packet (here: a BATMAN IV
OGM) in the queue of eth3 with the forw_packet->if_incoming set to eth1 and the
forw_packet->if_outgoing set to eth3.
When eth3 is to be deactivated and removed, then this thread waits for the
forw_packet queued on eth3 to finish. Because eth1 was deactivated and removed
earlier and by that had forw_packet->if_incoming->soft_iface, set to NULL, the
splat when trying to send/flush the OGM on eth3 occures.

- remove now redundant ssip_pn_set_mtu
ipoib:
- set a default max MTU value
- Note: ipoib's actual max MTU can vary, depending on if the device is in
connected mode or not, so we'll just set the max_mtu value to the max
possible, and let the ndo_change_mtu function continue to validate any new
MTU change requests with checks for CM or not. Note that ipoib has no
min_mtu set, and thus, the network core's mtu > 0 check is the only lower
bounds here.
mptlan:
- use net core MTU range checking
- remove now redundant mpt_lan_change_mtu

- min_mtu = 21, max_mtu = 4470
- remove now redundant fddi_change_mtu (including export)
fjes:
- min_mtu = 8192, max_mtu = 65536
- The max_mtu value is actually one over IP_MAX_MTU here, but the idea is to
get past the core net MTU range checks so fjes_change_mtu can validate a
new MTU against what it supports (see fjes_support_mtu in fjes_hw.c)

It must be avoided that arguments to a macro are evaluated ungrouped (which
enforces normal operator precendence). Otherwise the result of the macro
is not well defined.

Linus prefers to have octal permission numbers instead of combinations of
macro names ("random line noise"). Also old existing "bad symbolic
permission bit macro use" should be converted to octal numbers.
(http://lkml.kernel.org/r/CA+55aFw5v23T-zvDZp-MmD_EYxF8WbafwwB59934FV7g21uMGQ@mail.gmail.com)
Also remove the S_IFREG bit from the octal representation because it is
filtered out by debugfs_create.

The variables "tt_local_entry" and "tt_global_entry" were eventually
checked again despite of a corresponding null pointer test before.
* Avoid this double check by reordering a function call sequence
and the better selection of jump targets.
* Omit the initialisation for these variables at the beginning then.
