Merge branch 'rx_nohandler'

Jarod Wilson says:

====================
net: add and use rx_nohandler stat counter

The network core tries to keep track of dropped packets, but some packets
you wouldn't really call dropped, so much as intentionally ignored, under
certain circumstances. One such case is that of bonding and team device
slaves that are currently inactive. Their respective rx_handler functions
return RX_HANDLER_EXACT (the only places in the kernel that return that),
which ends up tracking into the network core's __netif_receive_skb_core()
function's drop path, with no pt_prev set. On a noisy network, this can
result in a very rapidly incrementing rx_dropped counter, not only on the
inactive slave(s), but also on the master device, such as the following:

$ cat /proc/net/dev

In this scenario, p5p1, p5p2 and p7p1 are all inactive slaves in an
active-backup bond0, and you can see that all three have high drop counts,
with the master bond0 showing a tally of all three.

I know that this was previously discussed some here:

    http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg226341.html

It seems additional counters never came to fruition, so this is a first
attempt at creating one of them, so that we stop calling these drops,
which for users monitoring rx_dropped, causes great alarm, and renders the
counter much less useful for them.

This adds a sysfs statistics node and makes the counter available via
netlink.

Additionally, I'm not certain if this set qualifies for net, or if it
should be put aside and resubmitted for net-next after 4.5 is put to
bed, but I do have users who consider this an important bugfix.

This has been tested quite a bit on x86_64, and now lightly on i686 as
well, to verify functionality of updates to netdev_stats_to_stats64()
on 32-bit arches.
