It turns out that net_alive is unnecessary, and the original problem
that led to it being added was simply that the icmp code thought
it was a network device and wound up being unable to handle packets
while there were still packets in the network namespace.
Now that icmp and tcp have been fixed to properly register themselves
this problem is no longer present and we have a stronger guarantee
that packets will not arrive in a network namespace then that provided
by net_alive in netif_receive_skb. So remove net_alive allowing
packet reception run a little faster.
Additionally document the strong reason why network namespace cleanup
is safe so that if something happens again someone else will have
a chance of figuring it out.

Recently I had a kernel panic in icmp_send during a network namespace
cleanup. There were packets in the arp queue that failed to be sent
and we attempted to generate an ICMP host unreachable message, but
failed because icmp_sk_exit had already been called.
The network devices are removed from a network namespace and their
arp queues are flushed before we do attempt to shutdown subsystems
so this error should have been impossible.
It turns out icmp_init is using register_pernet_device instead
of register_pernet_subsys. Which resulted in icmp being shut down
while we still had the possibility of packets in flight, making
a nasty NULL pointer deference in interrupt context possible.
Changing this to register_pernet_subsys fixes the problem in
my testing.

Our TCP stack does not set the urgent flag if the urgent pointer
does not fit in 16 bits, i.e., if it is more than 64K from the
sequence number of a packet.
This behaviour is different from the BSDs, and clearly contradicts
the purpose of urgent mode, which is to send the notification
(though not necessarily the associated data) as soon as possible.
Our current behaviour may in fact delay the urgent notification
indefinitely if the receiver window does not open up.
Simply matching BSD however may break legacy applications which
incorrectly rely on the out-of-band delivery of urgent data, and
conversely the in-band delivery of non-urgent data.
Alexey Kuznetsov suggested a safe solution of following BSD only
if the urgent pointer itself has not yet been transmitted. This
way we guarantee that when the remote end sees the packet with
non-urgent data marked as urgent due to wrap-around we would have
advanced the urgent pointer beyond, either to the actual urgent
data or to an as-yet untransmitted packet.
The only potential downside is that applications on the remote
end may see multiple SIGURG notifications. However, this would
occur anyway with other TCP stacks. More importantly, the outcome
of such a duplicate notification is likely to be harmless since
the signal itself does not carry any information other than the
fact that we're in urgent mode.

Further to a71558d, this is round five of fixes to make etherh work
again. As mainline kernels stand, the fixes in b9a9b4b were the wrong
approach.
The 8390 driver was structured by Al Viro to allow the flexibility required
by platforms. lib8390.c contains the core code which drivers explicitly
include:
- 8390.c includes lib8390.c to provide the standard ISA based driver.
- etherh.c includes it with the accessors defined for RiscPC platforms,
where it is addressed via the MMIO accessors with a device dependent
register spacing.
Other platform drivers do something similar.
However, b9a9b4b caused the kernel to contain not only the etherh private
build of lib8390 (included in etherh.c) but also lib8390.c itself, and
referred the new net_device_ops methods to the ISA version. The result
of this is is not pretty:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 12032030
pgd = c8330000

The failure happens when an interrupt occurs and the driver is reading
EICR. This read will cause a clear-by-read which leads to two TLP
being inserted in the PCIe retry buffer leading to an overflow of the
buffer and corruption of TLPs.
The solution is different depending where the reading of EICR takes place.
For ixgbe_msix_lsc() since we are in MSIX mode and know OCD is enabled a
clear-by-write is done instead of the normal clear-by-read.
For ixgbe_intr() 0xffffffff is written to EIMC before the read, masking the
interrupts.

This patch adds NETLINK_BROADCAST_ERROR which is a netlink
socket option that the listener can set to make netlink_broadcast()
return errors in the delivery to the caller. This option is useful
if the caller of netlink_broadcast() do something with the result
of the message delivery, like in ctnetlink where it drops a network
packet if the event delivery failed, this is used to enable reliable
logging and state-synchronization. If this socket option is not set,
netlink_broadcast() only reports ESRCH errors and silently ignore
ENOBUFS errors, which is what most netlink_broadcast() callers
should do.
This socket option is based on a suggestion from Patrick McHardy.
