sctp: remove typedefs from structures part 4

As we know, typedef is suggested not to use in kernel, even checkpatch.pl
also gives warnings about it. Now sctp is using it for many structures.

All this kind of typedef's using should be removed. This patchset is the
part 4 to remove it for another 14 basic structures from linux/sctp.h.
After this patchset, all typedefs are cleaned in linux/sctp.h.

Just as the part 1-3, No any code's logic would be changed in these patches,
only cleaning up.

ipv4: fib: Provide per-nexthop offload indication

Ido says:

Offload indication for IPv4 routes is currently set in the FIB info's
flags. When multipath routes are employed, this can lead to a route being
marked as offloaded although only one of its nexthops is actually
offloaded.

Instead, this patchset aims to proivde a higher resolution for the offload
indication and report it on a per-nexthop basis.

Example output from patched iproute:

$ ip route show 192.168.200.0/24
192.168.200.0/24
        nexthop via 192.168.100.2 dev enp3s0np7 weight 1 offload
        nexthop via 192.168.101.3 dev enp3s0np8 weight 1

And once the second gateway is resolved:

$ ip route show 192.168.200.0/24
192.168.200.0/24
        nexthop via 192.168.100.2 dev enp3s0np7 weight 1 offload
        nexthop via 192.168.101.3 dev enp3s0np8 weight 1 offload

First patch teaches the kernel to look for the offload indication in the
nexthop flags. Patches 2-5 adjust current capable drivers to provide
offload indication on a per-nexthop basis. Last patch removes no longer
used functions to set offload indication in the FIB info's flags.

Previous patch removed the reliance on the counter in the FIB info to
set the offload indication, so we no longer need to keep an offload
state on each FIB entry and can just set or unset the RTNH_F_OFFLOAD
flag in each nexthop.

This is also necessary because we're going to need to refresh the
offload indication whenever the nexthop group associated with the FIB
entry is refreshed. Current check would prevent us from marking a newly
resolved nexthop as offloaded if the FIB entry is already marked as
offloaded.

====================
netvsc: transparent VF support

This patch set changes how SR-IOV Virtual Function devices are managed
in the Hyper-V network driver. This version is rebased onto current net-next.

Background

In Hyper-V SR-IOV can be enabled (and disabled) by changing guest settings
on host. When SR-IOV is enabled a matching PCI device is hot plugged and
visible on guest. The VF device is an add-on to an existing netvsc
device, and has the same MAC address.

How is this different?

The original support of VF relied on using bonding driver in active
standby mode to handle the VF device.

With the new netvsc VF logic, the Linux hyper-V network
virtual driver will directly manage the link to SR-IOV VF device.
When VF device is detected (hot plug) it is automatically made a
slave device of the netvsc device. The VF device state reflects
the state of the netvsc device; i.e. if netvsc is set down, then
VF is set down. If netvsc is set up, then VF is brought up.

Packet flow is independent of VF status; all packets are sent and
received as if they were associated with the netvsc device. If VF is
removed or link is down then the synthetic VMBUS path is used.

What was wrong with using bonding script?

A lot of work went into getting the bonding script to work on all
distributions, but it was a major struggle. Linux network devices
can be configured many, many ways and there is no one solution from
userspace to make it all work. What is really hard is when
configuration is attached to synthetic device during boot (eth0) and
then the same addresses and firewall rules needs to also work later if
doing bonding. The new code gets around all of this.

How does VF work during initialization?

Since all packets are sent and received through the logical netvsc
device, initialization is much easier. Just configure the regular
netvsc Ethernet device; when/if SR-IOV is enabled it just
works. Provisioning and cloud init only need to worry about setting up
netvsc device (eth0). If SR-IOV is enabled (even as a later step), the
address and rules stay the same.

What devices show up?

Both netvsc and PCI devices are visible in the system. The netvsc
device is active and named in usual manner (eth0). The PCI device is
visible to Linux and gets renamed by udev to a persistent name
(enP2p3s0). The PCI device name is now irrelevant now.

The logic also sets the PCI VF device SLAVE flag on the network
device so network tools can see the relationship if they are smart
enough to understand how layered devices work.

This is a lot like how I see Windows working.
The VF device is visible in Device Manager, but is not configured.

Is there any performance impact?
There is no visible change in performance. The bonding
and netvsc driver both have equivalent steps.

Is it compatible with old bonding script?

It turns out that if you use the old bonding script, then everything
still works but in a sub-optimum manner. What happens is that bonding
is unable to steal the VF from the netvsc device so it creates a one
legged bond.  Packet flow then is:
	bond0 <--> eth0 <- -> VF (enP2p3s0).
In other words, if you get it wrong it still works, just
awkward and slower.

What if I add address or firewall rule onto the VF?

Same problems occur with now as already occur with bonding, bridging,
teaming on Linux if user incorrectly does configuration onto
an underlying slave device. It will sort of work, packets will come in
and out but the Linux kernel gets confused and things like ARP don’t
work right.  There is no way to block manipulation of the slave
device, and I am sure someone will find some special use case where
they want it.
