bug introduced with cea194d90b11aff7fc289149e4c7f305fad3535a
In the current TT code, when a TT_Response containing a full table is received
from an originator, first the node purges all the clients for that originator in
the global translation-table and then merges the newly received table.
During the purging phase each client deletion is done by means of a call_rcu()
invocation and at the end of this phase the global entry counter for that
originator is set to 0. However the invoked rcu function decreases the global
entry counter for that originator by one too and since the rcu invocation is
likely to be postponed, the node will end up in first setting the counter to 0
and then decreasing it one by one for each deleted client.
This bug leads to having a wrong global entry counter for the related node, say
X. Then when the node with the broken counter will answer to a TT_REQUEST on
behalf of node X, it will create faulty TT_RESPONSE that will generate an
unrecoverable situation on the node that asked for the full table recover.
The non-recoverability is given by the fact that the node with the broken
counter will keep answering on behalf of X because its knowledge about X's state
(ttvn + tt_crc) is correct.
To solve this problem the counter is not explicitly set to 0 anymore and the
counter decrement is performed right before the invocation of call_rcu().

This breaks refcounting on the ceph_osd structs that contain the
ceph_connections, and could lead to all manner of strangeness.
The purpose of the ->get and ->put methods in a ceph connection are
to allow the connection to indicate it has a reference to something
external to the messaging system, *not* to indicate something

was assigned skb->data before invoking skb_linearise(skb) must be re-assigned.
In the current tt_query message handling code this is not done and therefore, in
case of skb linearization, the pointer used to handle the packet header ends up

Orphaning skb in dev_hard_start_xmit() makes bonding behavior
unfriendly for applications sending big UDP bursts : Once packets
pass the bonding device and come to real device, they might hit a full
qdisc and be dropped. Without orphaning, the sender is automatically
throttled because sk->sk_wmemalloc reaches sk->sk_sndbuf (assuming
sk_sndbuf is not too big)
We could try to defer the orphaning adding another test in
dev_hard_start_xmit(), but all this seems of little gain,
now that BQL tends to make packets more likely to be parked
in Qdisc queues instead of NIC TX ring, in cases where performance
matters.

Bogdan Hamciuc diagnosed and fixed following bug in netpoll_send_udp() :
"skb->len += len;" instead of "skb_put(skb, len);"
Meaning that _if_ a network driver needs to call skb_realloc_headroom(),
only packet headers would be copied, leaving garbage in the payload.
However the skb_realloc_headroom() must be avoided as much as possible
since it requires memory and netpoll tries hard to work even if memory
is exhausted (using a pool of preallocated skbs)
It appears netpoll_send_udp() reserved 16 bytes for the ethernet header,
which happens to work for typicall drivers but not all.
Right thing is to use LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev)
(And also add dev->needed_tailroom of tailroom)
This patch combines both fixes.
Many thanks to Bogdan for raising this issue.
