HNS3 drivers enet layer, used for the ring management and stack
interaction, is common to both VF and PF. PF already supports reset
functionality to handle the network stack watchdog timeout trigger
but the existing code is not generic enough to be used to support VF
reset as well.
This patch does following:
1. Makes the existing watchdog timeout handler in enet layer generic
i.e. suitable for both VF and PF and
2. Introduces the new reset event handler for the VF code.
3. Changes existing reset event handler of PF code to initialize the
reset level

Rework ip_ra_chain protection
Commit 1215e51eda "ipv4: fix a deadlock in ip_ra_control"
made rtnl_lock() be used in raw_close(). This function is called
on every RAW socket destruction, so that rtnl_mutex is taken
every time. This scales very sadly. I observe cleanup_net()
spending a lot of time in rtnl_lock() and raw_close() is one
of the biggest rtnl user (since we have percpu net->ipv4.icmp_sk).
This patchset reworks the locking: reverts the problem commit
and its descendant, and introduces rtnl-independent locking.
This may have a continuation, and someone may work on killing
rtnl_lock() in mrtsock_destruct() in the future.

tipc: socket diagnostics additions for AF_TIPC
The following patchsets add socket diagnostics support for AF_TIPC by
using the sock diag framework. The patchset was created on top of
commit id: fb66cb0.
New iproute2 package is needed to use this functionality which will
be sent for review in a seperate mail.
The commit series improves diagnosis of tipc sockets by exporting the
configuration, states and statistics of sockets.
The series has been co-authored by Parthasarathy Bhuvaragan and
consist of two parts:
1-2: Adaptations of existing code to support sock_diag framework.
We modify existing functions to support socket diagnostics. Required
information about the sockets are exported.
3: Step sk_drops during packet drop.
This occurs if the packet cannot be queued due to queue length exceeding
configured thresholds.
The diag module is optional, and if enabled it will be loaded on demand
when needed.

This commit adds socket diagnostics capability for AF_TIPC in netlink
family NETLINK_SOCK_DIAG in a new kernel module (diag.ko).
The following are key design considerations:
- config TIPC_DIAG has default y, like INET_DIAG.
- only requests with flag NLM_F_DUMP is supported (dump all).
- tipc_sock_diag_req message is introduced to send filter parameters.
- the response attributes are of TLV, some nested.
To avoid exposing data structures between diag and tipc modules and
avoid code duplication, the following additions are required:
- export tipc_nl_sk_walk function to reuse socket iterator.
- export tipc_sk_fill_sock_diag to fill the tipc diag attributes.
- create a sock_diag response message in __tipc_add_sock_diag defined
in diag.c and use the above exported tipc_sk_fill_sock_diag
to fill response.

The current socket iterator function tipc_nl_sk_dump, handles socket
locks and calls __tipc_nl_add_sk for each socket.
To reuse this logic in sock_diag implementation, we do minor
modifications to make these functions generic as described below.
In this commit, we add a two new functions __tipc_nl_sk_walk,
__tipc_nl_add_sk_info and modify tipc_nl_sk_dump, __tipc_nl_add_sk
accordingly.
In __tipc_nl_sk_walk we:
1. acquire and release socket locks
2. for each socket, execute the specified callback function
In __tipc_nl_add_sk we:
- Move the netlink attribute insertion to __tipc_nl_add_sk_info.
tipc_nl_sk_dump calls tipc_nl_sk_walk with __tipc_nl_add_sk as argument.
sock_diag will use these generic functions in a later commit.
There is no functional change in this commit.

We already detect situations where a PPP channel sends packets back to
its upper PPP device. While this is enough to avoid deadlocking on xmit
locks, this doesn't prevent packets from looping between the channel
and the unit.
The problem is that ppp_start_xmit() enqueues packets in ppp->file.xq
before checking for xmit recursion. Therefore, __ppp_xmit_process()
might dequeue a packet from ppp->file.xq and send it on the channel
which, in turn, loops it back on the unit. Then ppp_start_xmit()
queues the packet back to ppp->file.xq and __ppp_xmit_process() picks
it up and sends it again through the channel. Therefore, the packet
will loop between __ppp_xmit_process() and ppp_start_xmit() until some
other part of the xmit path drops it.
For L2TP, we rapidly fill the skb's headroom and pppol2tp_xmit() drops
the packet after a few iterations. But PPTP reallocates the headroom
if necessary, letting the loop run and exhaust the machine resources
(as reported in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199109).
Fix this by letting __ppp_xmit_process() enqueue the skb to
ppp->file.xq, so that we can check for recursion before adding it to
the queue. Now ppp_xmit_process() can drop the packet when recursion is
detected.
__ppp_channel_push() is a bit special. It calls __ppp_xmit_process()
without having any actual packet to send. This is used by
ppp_output_wakeup() to re-enable transmission on the parent unit (for
implementations like ppp_async.c, where the .start_xmit() function
might not consume the skb, leaving it in ppp->xmit_pending and
disabling transmission).
Therefore, __ppp_xmit_process() needs to handle the case where skb is
NULL, dequeuing as many packets as possible from ppp->file.xq.
