The function batadv_bla_backbone_dump_bucket must be able to handle
non-complete dumps of a single bucket. It tries to do that by saving the
latest dumped index in *idx_skip to inform the caller about the current
state.
But the caller only assumes that buckets were not completely dumped when
the return code is non-zero. This function must therefore also return a
non-zero index when the dumping of an entry failed. Otherwise the caller
will just skip all remaining buckets.
And the function must also reset *idx_skip back to zero when it finished a
bucket. Otherwise it will skip the same number of entries in the next
bucket as the previous one had.

Consider the following situation which has been found in a test setup:
Gateway B has claimed client C and gateway A has the same backbone
network as B. C sends a broad- or multicast to B and directly after
this packet decides to send another packet to A due to a better TQ
value. B will forward the broad-/multicast into the backbone as it is
the responsible gw and after that A will claim C as it has been
chosen by C as the best gateway. If it now happens that A claims C
before it has received the broad-/multicast forwarded by B (due to
backbone topology or due to some delay in B when forwarding the
packet) we get a critical situation: in the current code A will
immediately unclaim C when receiving the multicast due to the
roaming client scenario although the position of C has not changed
in the mesh. If this happens the multi-/broadcast forwarded by B
will be sent back into the mesh by A and we have looping packets
until one of the gateways claims C again.
In order to prevent this, unclaiming of a client due to the roaming
client scenario is only done after a certain time is expired after
the last claim of the client. 100 ms are used here, which should be
slow enough for big backbones and slow gateways but fast enough not
to break the roaming client use case.

The network stack no longer uses the last_rx member of struct net_device
since the bonding driver switched to use its own private last_rx in
commit 9f24273837 ("bonding: use last_arp_rx in slave_last_rx()").
However, some drivers still (ab)use the field for their own purposes and
some driver just update it without actually using it.
Previously, there was an accompanying comment for the last_rx member
added in commit 4dc89133f4 ("net: add a comment on netdev->last_rx")
which asked drivers not to update is, unless really needed. However,
this commend was removed in commit f8ff080dac ("bonding: remove
useless updating of slave->dev->last_rx"), so some drivers added later
on still did update last_rx.
Remove all usage of last_rx and switch three drivers (sky2, atp and
smc91c92_cs) which actually read and write it to use their own private
copy in netdev_priv.
Compile-tested with allyesconfig and allmodconfig on x86 and arm.

The pointer batadv_bla_claim::backbone_gw can be changed at any time.
Therefore, access to it must be protected to ensure that two function
accessing the same backbone_gw are actually accessing the same. This is
especially important when the crc_lock is used or when the backbone_gw of a
claim is exchanged.
Not doing so leads to invalid memory access and/or reference leaks.

There are network setups where the current bridge loop avoidance can't
detect bridge loops. The minimal setup affected would consist of two
LANs and two separate meshes, connected in a ring like that:
A...(mesh1)...B
| |
(LAN1) (LAN2)
| |
C...(mesh2)...D
Since both the meshes and backbones are separate, the bridge loop
avoidance has not enough information to detect and avoid the loop
in this case. Even if these scenarios can't be fixed easily,
these kind of loops can be detected.
This patch implements a periodic check (running every 60 seconds for
now) which sends a broadcast frame with a random MAC address on
each backbone VLAN. If a broadcast frame with the same MAC address
is received shortly after on the mesh, we know that there must be a
loop and report that incident as well as throw an uevent to let others
handle that problem.

The batadv_claim_free_ref function uses call_rcu to delay the free of the
batadv_bla_claim object until no (already started) rcu_read_lock is enabled
anymore. This makes sure that no context is still trying to access the
object which should be removed. But batadv_bla_claim also contains a
reference to backbone_gw which must be removed.
The reference drop of backbone_gw was done in the call_rcu function
batadv_claim_free_rcu but should actually be done in the
batadv_claim_release function to avoid nested call_rcus. This is important
because rcu_barrier (e.g. batadv_softif_free or batadv_exit) will not
detect the inner call_rcu as relevant for its execution. Otherwise this
barrier will most likely be inserted in the queue before the callback of
the first call_rcu was executed. The caller of rcu_barrier will therefore
continue to run before the inner call_rcu callback finished.

We have found some networks in which nodes were constantly requesting
other nodes BLA claim tables to synchronize, just to ask for that again
once completed. The reason was that the crc checksum of the asked nodes
were out of sync due to missing locking and multiple writes to the same
crc checksum when adding/removing entries. Therefore the asked nodes
constantly reported the wrong crc, which caused repeating requests.
To avoid multiple functions changing a backbone gateways crc entry at
the same time, lock it using a spinlock.

The header files could not be build indepdent from each other. This is
happened because headers didn't include the files for things they've used.
This was problematic because the success of a build depended on the
knowledge about the right order of local includes.
Also source files were not including everything they've used explicitly.
Instead they required that transitive includes are always stable. This is
problematic because some transitive includes are not obvious, depend on
config settings and may not be stable in the future.
The order for include blocks are:
* primary headers (main.h and the *.h file of a *.c file)
* global linux headers
* required local headers
* extra forward declarations for pointers in function/struct declarations
The only exceptions are linux/bitops.h and linux/if_ether.h in packet.h.
This header file is shared with userspace applications like batctl and must
therefore build together with userspace applications. The header
linux/bitops.h is not part of the uapi headers and linux/if_ether.h
conflicts with the musl implementation of netinet/if_ether.h. The
maintainers rejected the use of __KERNEL__ preprocessor checks and thus
these two headers are only in main.h. All files using packet.h first have
to include main.h to work correctly.
