[NETNS][IPV6] addrconf - make addrconf per namespace
All the infrastructure to propagate the network namespace information
is ready. Make use of it.
There is a special case here between the initial network namespace and
the other namespaces:
* When ipv6 is initialized at boot time (aka in the init_net), it
registers to the notifier callback. So addrconf_notify will be called
as many time as there are network devices setup on the system and the
function will add ipv6 addresses to the network devices. But the first
device which needs to have its ipv6 address setup is the loopback,
unfortunatly this is not the case. So the loopback address is setup
manually in the ipv6 init function.
* With the network namespace, this ordering problem does not appears
because notifier is already setup and active, so as soon as we
register the loopback the ipv6 address is setup and it will be the
first device.

This patch fixes a DHCP issue of the kernel: some DHCP servers

of the DHCPDISCOVER packet they receive from clients.
Table 5 in RFC2131 page 36 requests the fields 'ciaddr' and

kernel's DHCP discovery packets with these two fields set to
'255.255.255.255' (in contrast to popular DHCP clients, such as
'dhclient' or 'udhcpc'). This leads to a not booting system.

[TCP]: Improve ipv4 established hash function.
If all of the entropy is in the local and foreign addresses,
but xor'ing together would cancel out that entropy, the
current hash performs poorly.
Suggested by Cosmin Ratiu:
Basically, the situation is as follows: There is a client
machine and a server machine. Both create 15000 virtual
interfaces, open up a socket for each pair of interfaces and
do SIP traffic. By profiling I noticed that there is a lot of
time spent walking the established hash chains with this
particular setup.
The addresses were distributed like this: client interfaces
were 198.18.0.1/16 with increments of 1 and server interfaces
were 198.18.128.1/16 with increments of 1. As I said, there
were 15000 interfaces. Source and destination ports were 5060
for each connection. So in this case, ports don't matter for
hashing purposes, and the bits from the address pairs used
cancel each other, meaning there are no differences in the
whole lot of pairs, so they all end up in the same hash chain.

init_net, but we should be able to have a timer per namespace and use
the timer callback parameter to pass the network namespace from the

The timer callback, fib6_run_gc, is actually used to be called
synchronously by some functions and asynchronously when the timer
expires.
When the timer expires, the delay specified for fib6_run_gc parameter
is always zero. So, I changed fib6_run_gc to not be a timer callback
but a function called by the timer callback and I added a timer
callback where its work is just to retrieve from the data arg of the
timer the network namespace and call fib6_run_gc with zero expiring
time and the network namespace parameters. That makes the code cleaner
for the fib6_run_gc callers.

mac80211: remove STA infos last_ack stuff
These things aren't used and the only possible use is within
rate control algorithms, however those can, if they need it,
keep track of it in their private data. last_ack_ms isn't
even updated so completely useless.

mac80211: safely free beacon in ieee80211_if_reinit
If ieee80211_if_reinit() is called from ieee80211_unregister_hw()
then it is possible that the driver will still request a beacon
(it is allowed to until ieee80211_unregister_hw() has returned.)
This means we need to use an RCU-protected write to the beacon
information even in this function.
