tipc: some optimizations and impovements
The commits in this series contain some relatively simple changes that
lead to better throughput across TIPC connections. We also make changes
to the implementation of link transmission queueing and priority
handling, in order to make the code more comprehensible and maintainable.
v2: Commit #2: Redesigned tipc_msg_validate() to use pskb_may_pull(),
as per feedback from David Miller.
Commit #3: Some cosmetic changes to tipc_msg_extract(). I tried to
replace the unconditional skb_linearize() with calls to
pskb_may_pull() at selected locations, but I gave up.
First, skb_trim() requires a fully linearized buffer.
Second, it doesn't make much sense; the whole buffer
will end up linearized, one way or another.

Messages transferred by TIPC are assigned an "importance priority", -an
integer value indicating how to treat the message when there is link or
destination socket congestion.
There is no separate header field for this value. Instead, the message
user values have been chosen in ascending order according to perceived
importance, so that the message user field can be used for this.
This is not a good solution. First, we have many more users than the
needed priority levels, so we end up with treating more priority
levels than necessary. Second, the user field cannot always
accurately reflect the priority of the message. E.g., a message
fragment packet should really have the priority of the enveloped
user data message, and not the priority of the MSG_FRAGMENTER user.
Until now, we have been working around this problem in different ways,
but it is now time to implement a consistent way of handling such
priorities, although still within the constraint that we cannot
allocate any more bits in the regular data message header for this.
In this commit, we define a new priority level, TIPC_SYSTEM_IMPORTANCE,
that will be the only one used apart from the four (lower) user data
levels. All non-data messages map down to this priority. Furthermore,
we take some free bits from the MSG_FRAGMENTER header and allocate
them to store the priority of the enveloped message. We then adjust
the functions msg_importance()/msg_set_importance() so that they
read/set the correct header fields depending on user type.
This small protocol change is fully compatible, because the code at
the receiving end of a link currently reads the importance level
only from user data messages, where there is no change.

struct tipc_link contains one single queue for outgoing packets,
where both transmitted and waiting packets are queued.
This infrastructure is hard to maintain, because we need
to keep a number of fields to keep track of which packets are
sent or unsent, and the number of packets in each category.
A lot of code becomes simpler if we split this queue into a transmission
queue, where sent/unacknowledged packets are kept, and a backlog queue,
where we keep the not yet sent packets.
In this commit we do this separation.

The unicast packet header contains a broadcast acknowledge sequence
number, that may need to be conveyed to the broadcast link for proper
treatment. Currently, the function tipc_rcv(), which is on the most
critical data path, calls the function tipc_bclink_acknowledge() to
have this done. This call is made for each received packet, and results
in the unconditional grabbing of the broadcast link spinlock.
This is unnecessary, since we can see directly from tipc_rcv() if
the acknowledged number differs from what has been previously acked
from the node in question. In the vast majority of cases the numbers
won't differ, and there is nothing to update.
We now make the call to tipc_bclink_acknowledge() conditional
to that the two ack values differ.

When we currently extract a bundled buffer from a message bundle in
the function tipc_msg_extract(), we allocate a new buffer and explicitly
copy the linear data area.
This is unnecessary, since we can just clone the buffer and do
skb_pull() on the clone to move the data pointer to the correct
position.
This is what we do in this commit.

Currently, TIPC linearizes all incoming buffers directly at reception
before passing them upwards in the stack. This is clearly a waste of
CPU resources, and must be avoided.
In this commit, we eliminate this unnecessary linearization. We still
ensure that at least the message header is linear, and that the buffer
is linearized where this is still needed, i.e. when unbundling and when
reversing messages.
In addition, we ensure that fragmented messages are validated after
reassembly before delivering them upwards in the stack.

This patch adds a handling for calibration if we are 5 minutes in PLL
state. I first tried to implement the calibration functionality in
TX_ON state via register values CF_START and DCU_START, but this occurs
a one second delay at each calibration time.
An another solution to start a calibration is to switch from TRX_OFF
state into TX_ON, then a calibration is done automatically by
transceiver. This method will be used in this patch, after each transmit
of a frame we check with jiffies if the PLL is set 5 minutes without
doing a TRX_OFF->(TX_ON || RX_AACK_ON) or channel switch. The worst case
would be a transceiver in receiving mode only, but this is under normal
operation very unlikely.

fragment for transmit, we will return and exit bcmgenet_xmit() with an
error.
We can therefore safely use our local copy of nr_frags to know by how
much we should decrement the number of free buffers available, and by
how much the producer count must be incremented and do this in the tail
of bcmgenet_xmit().

Currently, bcmgenet_desc_rx() calls bcmgenet_rx_refill() at the end of
Rx packet processing loop, after the current Rx packet has already been
passed to napi_gro_receive(). However, bcmgenet_rx_refill() might fail
to allocate a new Rx skb, thus leaving a hole on the Rx queue where no
valid Rx buffer exists.
To eliminate this situation:
1. Rewrite bcmgenet_rx_refill() to retain the current Rx skb on the Rx
queue if a new replacement Rx skb can't be allocated and DMA-mapped.
In this case, the data on the current Rx skb is effectively dropped.
2. Modify bcmgenet_desc_rx() to call bcmgenet_rx_refill() at the top of
Rx packet processing loop, so that the new replacement Rx skb is
already in place before the current Rx skb is processed.

tcp_metrics: Network namespace bloat reduction v3
This is a small pile of patches that convert tcp_metrics from using a
hash table per network namespace to using a single hash table for all
network namespaces.
This is broken up into several patches so that each small step along
the way could be carefully scrutinized as I wrote it, and equally so
that each small step can be reviewed.
There are several cleanups included in this series. The addition of
panic calls during boot where we can not handle failure, and not trying
simplifies the code. The removal of the return code from
tcp_metrics_flush_all.
The motivation for this change is that the tcp_metrics hash table at
128KiB is one of the largest components of a freshly allocated network
namespace.
I am resending the the previous version I sent has suffered bitrot, so I
have respun the patches so that they apply. I believe I have addressed
all of the review concerns except optimal behavior on little machines
with 32-byte cache lines, which is beyond me as even the current code
