This patch enhances TIPC's stream socket send routine so that
it avoids transmitting data in chunks that require fragmentation
and reassembly, thereby improving performance at both the
sending and receiving ends of the connection.
The "maximum packet size" hint that records MTU info allows
the socket to decide how big a chunk it should send; in the
event that the hint has become stale, fragmentation may still
occur, but the data will be passed correctly and the hint will
be updated in time for the following send. Note: The 66060 byte
pseudo-MTU used for intra-node connections requires the send
routine to perform an additional check to ensure it does not
exceed TIPC"s limit of 66000 bytes of user data per chunk.

Currently, if the socket is owned by the user, we drop the ICMP
message. As a result SCTP forgets that path MTU changed and
never adjusting it's estimate. This causes all subsequent
packets to be fragmented. With this patch, we'll flag the association
that it needs to udpate it's estimate based on the already updated
routing information.

The current NetLabel code has some redundant APIs which allow both
"struct socket" and "struct sock" types to be used; this may have made
sense at some point but it is wasteful now. Remove the functions that
operate on sockets and convert the callers. Not only does this make
the code smaller and more consistent but it pushes the locking burden
up to the caller which can be more intelligent about the locks. Also,
perform the same conversion (socket to sock) on the SELinux/NetLabel
glue code where it make sense.

Currently we check for permission before deleting entries from SAD and
SPD, (see security_xfrm_policy_delete() security_xfrm_state_delete())
However we are not checking for authorization when flushing the SPD and
the SAD completely. It was perhaps missed in the original security hooks
patch.
This patch adds a security check when flushing entries from the SAD and
SPD. It runs the entire database and checks each entry for a denial.
If the process attempting the flush is unable to remove all of the
entries a denial is logged the the flush function returns an error
without removing anything.
This is particularly useful when a process may need to create or delete
its own xfrm entries used for things like labeled networking but that
same process should not be able to delete other entries or flush the
entire database.

The current IPSEC rule resolution behavior we have does not work for a
lot of people, even though technically it's an improvement from the
-EAGAIN buisness we had before.
Right now we'll block until the key manager resolves the route. That
works for simple cases, but many folks would rather packets get
silently dropped until the key manager resolves the IPSEC rules.
We can't tell these folks to "set the socket non-blocking" because
they don't have control over the non-block setting of things like the
sockets used to resolve DNS deep inside of the resolver libraries in
libc.
With that in mind I coded up the patch below with some help from
Herbert Xu which provides packet-drop behavior during larval state
resolution, controllable via sysctl and off by default.
This lays the framework to either:
1) Make this default at some point or...
2) Move this logic into xfrm{4,6}_policy.c and implement the
ARP-like resolution queue we've all been dreaming of.
The idea would be to queue packets to the policy, then
once the larval state is resolved by the key manager we
re-resolve the route and push the packets out. The
packets would timeout if the rule didn't get resolved
in a certain amount of time.

During the INIT/COOKIE-ACK collision cases, it's possible to get
into a situation where the association id is not yet set at the time
of the user event generation. As a result, user events have an
association id set to 0 which will confuse applications.
This happens if we hit case B of duplicate cookie processing.
In the particular example found and provided by Oscar Isaula

A B
---- INIT-------> (lost)
<---------INIT------
---- INIT-ACK--->
<------ Cookie ECHO
When the Cookie Echo is received, we end up trying to update the
association that was created on A as a result of the (lost) INIT,
but that association doesn't have the ID set yet.

On MIPv6 usage, XFRM sub policy is enabled.
When main (IPsec) and sub (MIPv6) policy selectors have the same
address set but different upper layer information (i.e. protocol
number and its ports or type/code), multiple bundle should be created.
However, currently we have issue to use the same bundle created for
the first time with all flows covered by the case.
It is useful for the bundle to have the upper layer information
to be restructured correctly if it does not match with the flow.
1. Bundle was created by two policies
Selector from another policy is added to xfrm_dst.
If the flow does not match the selector, it goes to slow path to
restructure new bundle by single policy.
2. Bundle was created by one policy
Flow cache is added to xfrm_dst as originated one. If the flow does
not match the cache, it goes to slow path to try searching another
policy.

SACKED_ACKED and LOST are mutually exclusive with SACK, thus
having their sum larger than packets_out is bug with SACK.
Eventually these bugs trigger traps in the tcp_clean_rtx_queue
with SACK but it's much more informative to do this here.
Non-SACK TCP, however, could get more than packets_out duplicate
ACKs which each increment sacked_out, so it makes sense to do
this kind of limitting for non-SACK TCP but not for SACK enabled
one. Perhaps the author had the opposite in mind but did the
logic accidently wrong way around? Anyway, the sacked_out
incrementer code for non-SACK already deals this issue before
calling sync_left_out so this trapping can be done
unconditionally.

Calling smp_call_function can lead to a deadlock if it is called
from tasklet context.
Fixing this deadlock requires to move the smp_call_function from the
tasklet context to a work queue. To do that queue the path pending
interrupts to a separate list and move the path cleanup out of
iucv_path_sever to iucv_path_connect and iucv_path_pending.
This creates a new requirement for iucv_path_connect: it may not be
called from tasklet context anymore.
Also fixed compile problem for CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n and
another one when walking the cpu_online mask. When doing this,
we must disable cpu hotplug.
