Add a secmark field to the skbuff structure, to allow security subsystems to
place security markings on network packets. This is similar to the nfmark
field, except is intended for implementing security policy, rather than than
networking policy.
This patch was already acked in principle by Dave Miller.

This adds a new module for tracking TCP state variables non-intrusively
using kprobes. It has a simple /proc interface that outputs one line
for each packet received. A sample usage is to collect congestion
window and ssthresh over time graphs.

If you are on a hostile network, or are running protocol tests, you can
easily get the logged swamped by messages about bad UDP and ICMP packets.
This turns those messages off unless a config option is enabled.

This patch contains the following changes:
- add a CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT select'ed by NET_RADIO for conditional
code
- remove the now no longer required #ifdef CONFIG_NET_RADIO from some
#include's

This is just a cosmetic change that moves the TIPC configuration
entry next to the other protocols that also have sub-options.
Makes the the networking options menu look a bit better.

Development to this point was done on a subversion repository at:
http://oops.ghostprotocols.net:81/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/dccp-2.6/
This repository will be kept at this site for the foreseable future,
so that interested parties can see the history of this code,
attributions, etc.
If I ever decide to take this offline I'll provide the full history at
some other suitable place.

Introduce "nfnetlink" (netfilter netlink) layer. This layer is used as
transport layer for all userspace communication of the new upcoming
netfilter subsystems, such as ctnetlink, nfnetlink_queue and some day even
the mythical pkttables ;)

Put NETCONSOLE and NETPOLL options together since they are related.
This cuts down on the hassle of flipping back and forth between
the Networking menu and the Network drivers menu to change their
config settings.
Tested with menuconfig, gconfig, and xconfig.
gconfig has a small problem with this. I think that it's
a bug in gconfig and I will take it up with Romain Lievin.

Move the protocol specific config options out to the specific protocols.
With this change net/Kconfig now starts to become readable and serve as a
good basis for further re-structuring.
The menu structure is left almost intact, except that indention is
fixed in most cases. Most visible are the INET changes where several
"depends on INET" are replaced with a single ifdef INET / endif pair.
Several new files were created to accomplish this change - they are
small but serve the purpose that config options are now distributed
out where they belongs.

Create a new top-level menu named "Networking" thus moving
net related options and protocol selection way from the drivers
menu and up on the top-level where they belong.
To implement this all architectures has to source "net/Kconfig" before
drivers/*/Kconfig in their Kconfig file. This change has been
implemented for all architectures.
Device drivers for ordinary NIC's are still to be found
in the Device Drivers section, but Bluetooth, IrDA and ax25
are located with their corresponding menu entries under the new
networking menu item.

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!
