Use the new APIs for eliminating a copy on the receive path. These new APIs also
help in minimizing the number of memory barriers we end up issuing (in the
ringbuffer code) since we can better control when we want to expose the ring
state to the host.

hfsc_sched is huge (size: 920, cachelines: 15), but we can get it to 14
cachelines by placing level after filter_cnt (covering 4 byte hole) and
reducing period/nactive/flags to u32 (period is just a counter,
incremented when class becomes active -- 2**32 is plenty for this
purpose, also, long is only 32bit wide on 32bit platforms anyway).

cl_vtperiod is exported to userspace via tc_hfsc_stats, but its period
member is already u32, so no precision is lost there either.

6) Conntrack slabs with SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN to allow rearranging fields

7) Skip zone comparison if CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_ZONES=n, from Florian.

8) Remove useless defensive check in nf_logger_find_get() from Shivani
   Bhardwaj.

9) Remove zone extension as place it in the conntrack object, this is
   always include in the hashing and we expect more intensive use of
   zones since containers are in place. Also from Florian Westphal.

10) Owner match now works from any namespace, from Eric Bierdeman.

11) Make sure we only reply with TCP reset to TCP traffic from
    nf_reject_ipv4, patch from Liping Zhang.

12) Introduce --nflog-size to indicate amount of network packet bytes
    that are copied to userspace via log message, from Vishwanath Pai.
    This obsoletes --nflog-range that has never worked, it was designed
    to achieve this but it has never worked.

13) Introduce generic macros for nf_tables object generation masks.

14) Use generation mask in table, chain and set objects in nf_tables.
    This allows fixes interferences with ongoing preparation phase of
    the commit protocol and object listings going on at the same time.
    This update is introduced in three patches, one per object.

15) Check if the object is active in the next generation for element
    deactivation in the rbtree implementation, given that deactivation
    happens from the commit phase path we have to observe the future
    status of the object.

16) Support for deletion of just added elements in the hash set type.

17) Allow to resize hashtable from /proc entry, not only from the
    obscure /sys entry that maps to the module parameter, from Florian
    Westphal.

18) Get rid of NFT_BASECHAIN_DISABLED, this code is not exercised

    goes away.

19) Support for matching inverted set lookups, from Arturo Borrero.

20) Simplify the iptables_mangle_hook() by removing a superfluous

Beacon report radio measurement requires reporting observed BSSs
on the channels specified in the beacon request. If the measurement
mode is set to passive or active, it requires actually performing a
scan (passive or active, accordingly), and reporting the time that
the scan was started and the time each beacon/probe was received
(both in terms of TSF of the BSS of the requesting AP). If the
request mode is table, this information is optional.
In addition, the radio measurement request specifies the channel
dwell time for the measurement.

In order to use scan for beacon report when the mode is active or
passive, add a parameter to scan request that specifies the
channel dwell time, and add scan start time and beacon received time
to scan results information.

Supporting beacon report is required for Multi Band Operation (MBO).

mlxsw: Implement IPV4 unicast routing

This patchset enables IPv4 unicast routing in the Mellanox Spectrum ASIC
switch driver. This builds upon the work that was done by a couple of
previous patchsets.

Patches 1,2,6 add a couple of dependencies outside the driver. Namely, the
ability to propagate ndo_neigh_construct()/destroy() through stacked devices and
a notification whenever DELAY_PROBE_TIME changes. When propagated down, the
ndos allow drivers to add and remove neighbour entries from their private
neighbour table. The DELAY_PROBE_TIME notification gives drivers the ability to
correctly configure their polling interval for neighbour activity, so that
active neighbour won't be marked as STALE.

Patches 3-5,7-8 add the neighbour offloading infrastructure, where patch 7 uses
the DELAY_PROBE_TIME notification in order to correctly configure the device's
polling interval. Patch 8 finally programs neighbours to the device's table
based on NEIGH_UPDATE notifications, so that directly connected routes can
be used.

Patches 9-16 build upon the previous patches and extend the router with
remote routes (nexthop) support.

As previously explained, the driver should periodically poll the device
for neighbours activity according to the configured DELAY_PROBE_TIME.
This will prevent active neighbours from staying in STALE state for long
periods of time.

During init configure the polling interval according to the
DELAY_PROBE_TIME used in the default table. In addition, register a
netevent notification block, so that the interval is updated whenever
DELAY_PROBE_TIME changes.

Using the computed interval schedule a delayed work, which will update
the kernel via neigh_event_send() on any active neighbour since the last
delayed work.

When the data plane is offloaded the traffic doesn't go through the
networking stack. Therefore, after first resolving a neighbour the NUD
state machine will transition it from REACHABLE to STALE until it's
finally deleted by the garbage collector.

To prevent such situations the offloading driver should notify the NUD
state machine on any neighbours that were recently used. The driver's
polling interval should be set so that the NUD state machine can
function as if the traffic wasn't offloaded.

Currently, there are no in-tree drivers that can report confirmation for
a neighbour, but only 'used' indication. Therefore, the polling interval
should be set according to DELAY_FIRST_PROBE_TIME, as a neighbour will
transition from REACHABLE state to DELAY (instead of STALE) if "a packet
was sent within the last DELAY_FIRST_PROBE_TIME seconds" (RFC 4861).

Send a netevent whenever the DELAY_FIRST_PROBE_TIME changes - either via
netlink or sysctl - so that offloading drivers can correctly set their
polling interval.
