On 64 bit arches having efficient unaligned accesses (eg x86_64) we can
use long words to reduce number of instructions for free.
Joe Perches suggested to change ipv6_masked_addr_cmp() to return a bool
instead of 'int', to make sure ipv6_masked_addr_cmp() cannot be used
in a sorting function.

This patch series works towards the goal of minimizing the amount
of things that can change in an ipv4 route.
In a regime where the routing cache is removed, route changes will
lead to cloning in the FIB tables or similar.
The largest trigger of route metrics writes, TCP, now has it's own
cache of dynamic metric state. The timewait timestamps are stored
there now as well.
As a result of that, pre-cowing metrics is no longer necessary,
and therefore FLOWI_FLAG_PRECOW_METRICS is removed.
Redirect and PMTU handling is moved back into the ipv4 routes. I'm
sorry for all the headaches trying to do this in the inetpeer has
caused, it was the wrong approach for sure.
Since metrics become read-only for ipv4 we no longer need the inetpeer
hung off of the ipv4 routes either. So those disappear too.
Also, timewait sockets no longer need to hold onto an inetpeer either.
After this series, we still have some details to resolve wrt. PMTU and
redirects for a route-cache-less system:
1) With just the plain route cache removal, PMTU will continue to
work mostly fine. This is because of how the local route users
call down into the PMTU update code with the route they already
hold.
However, if we wish to cache pre-computed routes in fib_info
nexthops (which we want for performance), then we need to add
route cloning for PMTU events.
2) Redirects require more work. First, redirects must be changed to
be handled like PMTU. Wherein we call down into the sockets and
other entities, and then they call back into the routing code with
the route they were using.
So we'll be adding an ->update_nexthop() method alongside
->update_pmtu().
And then, like for PMTU, we'll need cloning support once we start
caching routes in the fib_info nexthops.
But that's it, we can completely pull the trigger and remove the
routing cache with minimal disruptions.
As it is, this patch series alone helps a lot of things. For one,
routing cache entry creation should be a lot faster, because we no
longer do inetpeer lookups (even to check if an entry exists).
This patch series also opens the door for non-DST_HOST ipv4 routes,
because nothing fundamentally cares about rt->rt_dst any more. It
can be removed with the base routing cache removal patch. In fact,
that was the primary goal of this patch series.

Nothing every writes to ipv4 metrics any longer.
PMTU is stored in rt->rt_pmtu.
Dynamic TCP metrics are stored in a special TCP metrics cache,
completely outside of the routes.
Therefore ->cow_metrics() can simply nothing more than a WARN_ON
trigger so we can catch anyone who tries to add new writes to
ipv4 route metrics.

Maintain a local hash table of TCP dynamic metrics blobs.
Computed TCP metrics are no longer maintained in the route metrics.
The table uses RCU and an extremely simple hash so that it has low
latency and low overhead. A simple hash is legitimate because we only
make metrics blobs for fully established connections.
Some tweaking of the default hash table sizes, metric timeouts, and
the hash chain length limit certainly could use some tweaking. But
the basic design seems sound.

Macro spin_event_timeout() was designed for simple polling of hardware
registers with a timeout, so use it when we poll the MIIMIND register.
This allows us to return an error code instead of polling indefinitely.
Note that PHY_INIT_TIMEOUT is a count of loop iterations, so we can't use
it for spin_event_timeout(), which asks for microseconds.

as the manual of module_pci_driver says that

the module does nothing but the pci_register_driver

use it for rdc's r6040 driver, as the init and exit
paths does as above, and also this reduces a little

ocp functions. r8168g_mdio_{write / read} redirects the relative
settings to suitable ocp functions. A per-device variable is needed

rtl_writephy(tp, 0x1f, xxxx) is dedicated to keeping said variable

While doing some recent work on sctp sack bundling I noted that
sctp_packet_append_chunk was pretty inefficient. Specifially, it was called
recursively while trying to bundle auth and sack chunks. Because of that we
call sctp_packet_bundle_sack and sctp_packet_bundle_auth a total of 4 times for
every call to sctp_packet_append_chunk, knowing that at least 3 of those calls
will do nothing.
So lets refactor sctp_packet_bundle_auth to have an outer part that does the
attempted bundling, and an inner part that just does the chunk appends. This
saves us several calls per iteration that we just don't need.
Also, noticed that the auth and sack bundling fail to free the chunks they
allocate if the append fails, so make sure we add that in

I noticed excess calls to skb_copy_expand() or memmove() in asix driver.
This driver needs to push 4 bytes in front of frame (packet_len)
and maybe add 4 bytes after the end (if padlen is 4)
So it should set needed_headroom & needed_tailroom to avoid
copies. But its not enough, because many packets are cloned
before entering asix_tx_fixup() and this driver use skb_cloned()
as a lazy way to check if it can push and put additional bytes in frame.
Avoid skb_copy_expand() expensive call, using following rules :
- We are allowed to push 4 bytes in headroom if skb_header_cloned()
is false (and if we have 4 bytes of headroom)
- We are allowed to put 4 bytes at tail if skb_cloned()
is false (and if we have 4 bytes of tailroom)
TCP packets for example are cloned, but skb_header_release()
was called in tcp stack, allowing us to use headroom for our needs.
