Following patch adds icmp-registration module for ipv6. It allows
ipv6 protocol to register icmp_sender which is used for sending
ipv6 icmp msgs. This extra layer allows us to kill ipv6 dependency
for sending icmp packets.
This patch also fixes ip_tunnel compilation problem when ip_tunnel
is statically compiled in kernel but ipv6 is module

Change all the code that deals directly with ICMPv6 type and code
values to use u8 instead of a signed int as that's the actual data
type.

Problem observed:
In IPv6, in the presence of multiple routers candidates to
default gateway in one segment, each sending a different
value of preference, the Linux hosts connected to the
segment weren't selecting the right one in all the
combinations possible of LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH preference.
This patch changes two files:
include/linux/icmpv6.h
Get the "router_pref" bitfield in the right place
(as RFC4191 says), named the bit left with this fix as
"home_agent" (RFC3775 say that's his function)
net/ipv6/ndisc.c
Corrects the binary logic behind the updating of the
router preference in the flags of the routing table
Result:
With this two fixes applied, the default route used by
the system was to consistent with the rules mentioned
in RFC4191 in case of changes in the value of preference
in router advertisements

still legal to touch skb->h.raw directly if just adding to,
subtracting from or setting it to another layer header.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
