- Locking abstraction
- Spinlocks moved out of rt hash table : Less memory (50%) used by rt
hash table. it's a win even on UP.
- Sizing of spinlocks table depends on NR_CPUS

Current behaviour is to not report an error if a rate
estimator is created together with a qdisc and the
configuration of the rate estimator is bogus. This leads
to unexpected behaviour because the user is not notified.
New behaviour is to report the error and let the whole
qdisc creation operation fail so the user is able to fix
his mistake.

Reduce local_df to a bit field and ip_summed to a 2 bits
field thus saving 13 bits. Move bit fields, packet type,
and protocol into the spare area between the priority
and the destructor. Saves 4 bytes on both, 32bit and
64bit architectures.

skb_header_pointer handles linear and non-linear data, no need to handle

This is the code to load packet data into a register:
k = fentry->k;
if (k < 0) {
...
} else {
u32 _tmp, *p;
p = skb_header_pointer(skb, k, 4, &_tmp);
if (p != NULL) {
A = ntohl(*p);
continue;
}
}
skb_header_pointer checks if the requested data is within the
linear area:
int hlen = skb_headlen(skb);
if (offset + len <= hlen)
return skb->data + offset;
When offset is within [INT_MAX-len+1..INT_MAX] the addition will
result in a negative number which is <= hlen.
I couldn't trigger a crash on my AMD64 with 2GB of memory, but a
coworker tried on his x86 machine and it crashed immediately.
This patch fixes the check in skb_header_pointer to handle large
positive offsets similar to skb_copy_bits. Invalid data can still
be accessed using negative offsets (also similar to skb_copy_bits),
anyone using negative offsets needs to verify them himself.
Thanks to Thomas Vgtle <thomas.voegtle@coreworks.de> for verifying the
problem by crashing his machine and providing me with an Oops.

Patch from Catalin Marinas
The range for the ARMv6 block cache operations is inclusive but the
kernel doesn't re-calculate the end address, causing a page fault when
used (this only happens with support for cache aliasing, otherwise the
blk_flush_kern_dcache_page() is not called). This patch subtracts
L1_CACHE_BYTES from the end address.
