Currently vlan notifier handler will try to update all vlans
for a device when that device comes up. A problem occurs,
however, when the vlan device was set to promiscuous, but not
by the user (ex: a bridge). In that case, dev->gflags are
not updated. What results is that the lower device ends
up with an extra promiscuity count. Here are the
backtraces that prove this:
[62852.052179] [<ffffffff814fe248>] __dev_set_promiscuity+0x38/0x1e0
[62852.052186] [<ffffffff8160bcbb>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_bh+0x1b/0x40

[62852.052200] [<ffffffff814fe989>] dev_change_flags+0x29/0x60
The above comes from the setting the vlan device to IFF_UP state.
[62852.053569] [<ffffffff814fe248>] __dev_set_promiscuity+0x38/0x1e0
[62852.053571] [<ffffffffa032459b>] ? vlan_dev_set_rx_mode+0x2b/0x30

[62852.053657] [<ffffffff8150cd57>] do_setlink+0x397/0xa40
And this one comes from the notification code. What we end
up with is a vlan with promiscuity count of 1 and and a physical
device with a promiscuity count of 2. They should both have
a count 1.
To resolve this issue, vlan code can use dev_get_flags() api
which correctly masks promiscuity and allmulti flags.

Stacked vlan devices curretly have few features (GRO, HIGHDMA, LLTX).
Since we have software fallbacks in case the NIC can not handle some
features for multiple vlans, we can add the same features as the lower
vlan devices for stacked vlan devices.
This allows stacked vlan devices to create large (GSO) packets and not to
segment packets. Those packets will be segmented by software on the real
device, or even can be segmented by the NIC once TSO for multiple vlans
becomes enabled by the following patches.
The exception is those related to FCoE, which does not have a software
fallback.

When a networking device is taken down that has a non-trivial number
of VLAN devices configured under it, we eat a full synchronize_net()
for every such VLAN device.
This is because of the call chain:
NETDEV_DOWN notifier
--> vlan_device_event()
--> dev_change_flags()
--> __dev_change_flags()
--> __dev_close()
--> __dev_close_many()
--> dev_deactivate_many()
--> synchronize_net()
This is kind of rediculous because we already have infrastructure for
batching doing operation X to a list of net devices so that we only
incur one sync.
So make use of that by exporting dev_close_many() and adjusting it's
interfaace so that the caller can fully manage the batch list. Use
this in vlan_device_event() and all the overhead goes away.

Testing xmit_more support with netperf and connected UDP sockets,
I found strange dst refcount false sharing.
Current handling of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE is not optimal.
Dropping dst in validate_xmit_skb() is certainly too late in case
packet was queued by cpu X but dequeued by cpu Y
The logical point to take care of drop/force is in __dev_queue_xmit()
before even taking qdisc lock.
As Julian Anastasov pointed out, need for skb_dst() might come from some
packet schedulers or classifiers.
This patch adds new helper to cleanly express needs of various drivers
or qdiscs/classifiers.
Drivers that need skb_dst() in their ndo_start_xmit() should call
following helper in their setup instead of the prior :
dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE;
->
netif_keep_dst(dev);
Instead of using a single bit, we use two bits, one being
eventually rebuilt in bonding/team drivers.
The other one, is permanent and blocks IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE being
rebuilt in bonding/team. Eventually, we could add something
smarter later.

Currently the functionality to untag traffic on input resides
as part of the vlan module and is build only when VLAN support
is enabled in the kernel. When VLAN is disabled, the function
vlan_untag() turns into a stub and doesn't really untag the
packets. This seems to create an interesting interaction
between VMs supporting checksum offloading and some network drivers.
There are some drivers that do not allow the user to change
tx-vlan-offload feature of the driver. These drivers also seem
to assume that any VLAN-tagged traffic they transmit will
have the vlan information in the vlan_tci and not in the vlan
header already in the skb. When transmitting skbs that already
have tagged data with partial checksum set, the checksum doesn't
appear to be updated correctly by the card thus resulting in a
failure to establish TCP connections.
The following is a packet trace taken on the receiver where a
sender is a VM with a VLAN configued. The host VM is running on
doest not have VLAN support and the outging interface on the
host is tg3:
10:12:43.503055 52:54:00:ae:42:3f > 28:d2:44:7d:c2:de, ethertype 802.1Q

4294838888 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0
This connection finally times out.
I've only access to the TG3 hardware in this configuration thus have
only tested this with TG3 driver. There are a lot of other drivers
that do not permit user changes to vlan acceleration features, and
I don't know if they all suffere from a similar issue.
The patch attempt to fix this another way. It moves the vlan header
stipping code out of the vlan module and always builds it into the
kernel network core. This way, even if vlan is not supported on
a virtualizatoin host, the virtual machines running on top of such
host will still work with VLANs enabled.

When combining real_dev's features and vlan_features, simple
bitwise AND is used. This doesn't work well for checksum
offloading features as if one set has NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and the
other NETIF_F_IP_CSUM and/or NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM, we end up with
no checksum offloading. However, from the logical point of view
(how can_checksum_protocol() works), NETIF_F_HW_CSUM contains
the functionality of NETIF_F_IP_CSUM and NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM so
that the result should be IP/IPV6.
Add helper function netdev_intersect_features() implementing
this logic and use it in vlan_dev_fix_features().

The reason is that all of the addr_lock_key for vlan dev have the same class,
so if we change the status for vlan dev, the vlan dev and its real dev will
hold the same class of addr_lock_key together, so the warning happened.
we should distinguish the lock depth for vlan dev and its real dev.
v1->v2: Convert the vlan_netdev_addr_lock_key to an array of eight elements, which
could support to add 8 vlan id on a same vlan dev, I think it is enough for current
scene, because a netdev's name is limited to IFNAMSIZ which could not hold 8 vlan id,
and the vlan dev would not meet the same class key with its real dev.
The new function vlan_dev_get_lockdep_subkey() will return the subkey and make the vlan
dev could get a suitable class key.
v2->v3: According David's suggestion, I use the subclass to distinguish the lock key for vlan dev
and its real dev, but it make no sense, because the difference for subclass in the
lock_class_key doesn't mean that the difference class for lock_key, so I use lock_depth
to distinguish the different depth for every vlan dev, the same depth of the vlan dev
could have the same lock_class_key, I import the MAX_LOCK_DEPTH from the include/linux/sched.h,
I think it is enough here, the lockdep should never exceed that value.
v3->v4: Add a huge array of locking keys will waste static kernel memory and is not a appropriate method,
we could use _nested() variants to fix the problem, calculate the depth for every vlan dev,
and use the depth as the subclass for addr_lock_key.

Replace the bh safe variant with the hard irq safe variant.
We need a hard irq safe variant to deal with netpoll transmitting
packets from hard irq context, and we need it in most if not all of
the places using the bh safe variant.
Except on 32bit uni-processor the code is exactly the same so don't
bother with a bh variant, just have a hard irq safe variant that
everyone can use.

With TX VLAN offload enabled the source MAC address for frames sent using the
VLAN interface is currently set to the address of the real interface. This is
wrong since the VLAN interface may be configured with a different address.
The bug was introduced in commit 2205369a31
("vlan: Fix header ops passthru when doing TX VLAN offload.").
This patch sets the source address before calling the create function of the
real interface.

Ether_addr_equal_64bits is more efficient than ether_addr_equal, and
can be used when each argument is an array within a structure that
contains at least two bytes of data beyond the array, so it is safe
to use it for vlan, and make sense for fast path.

According Joe's suggestion, maybe it'd be faster to add an unlikely to
the test for PCKET_OTHERHOST, so I add it and see whether the performance
could be better, although the differences is so small and negligible, but
it is hard to catch that any lower device would set the skb type to
PACKET_OTHERHOST, so most of time, I think it make sense to add unlikely
for the test.

When the vlan code detects that the real device can do TX VLAN offloads
in hardware, it tries to arrange for the real device's header_ops to
be invoked directly.
But it does so illegally, by simply hooking the real device's
header_ops up to the VLAN device.
This doesn't work because we will end up invoking a set of header_ops
routines which expect a device type which matches the real device, but
will see a VLAN device instead.
Fix this by providing a pass-thru set of header_ops which will arrange
to pass the proper real device instead.
To facilitate this add a dev_rebuild_header(). There are
implementations which provide a ->cache and ->create but not a
->rebuild (f.e. PLIP). So we need a helper function just like
dev_hard_header() to avoid crashes.
Use this helper in the one existing place where the
header_ops->rebuild was being invoked, the neighbour code.
With lots of help from Florian Westphal.

Provide a method for read-only access to the vlan device egress mapping.
Do this by refactoring vlan_dev_get_egress_qos_mask() such that now it
receives as an argument the skb priority instead of pointer to the skb.
Such an access is needed for the IBoE stack where the control plane
goes through the network stack. This is an add-on step on top of commit
d4a968658c "net/route: export symbol ip_tos2prio" which allowed the RDMA-CM
to use ip_tos2prio.

In order to enable lockdep on seqcount/seqlock structures, we
must explicitly initialize any locks.
The u64_stats_sync structure, uses a seqcount, and thus we need
to introduce a u64_stats_init() function and use it to initialize
the structure.
This unfortunately adds a lot of fairly trivial initialization code
to a number of drivers. But the benefit of ensuring correctness makes
this worth while.
Because these changes are required for lockdep to be enabled, and the
changes are quite trivial, I've not yet split this patch out into 30-some
separate patches, as I figured it would be better to get the various
maintainers thoughts on how to best merge this change along with
the seqcount lockdep enablement.
Feedback would be appreciated!

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.
Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

On netdev unregister we're removing also all of its sysfs-associated stuff,
including the sysfs symlinks that are controlled by netdev neighbour code.
Also, it's a subtle race condition - cause we can still access it after
unregistering.
Move the unlinking right before the unregistering to fix both.
