====================
This series of changes basically clean up NDISC logic,
especially on sender side.
We originally do For NS/NA/RS:
1) build temporary ICMPv6 header
2) ndisc_build_skb() with temporary ICMPv6 header and rather
criptic arguments.
- Calculate total length and allocate sk_buff
- Build IPv6 header.
- copy ICMPv6 header, additional data and ND options.
- Fill-in ICMPv6 checksum.
Here, structures defined for message format was not used
at all, it is difficult to understand what is being sent,
and it was not generic.
3) __ndisc_send()
- Allocate temporary dst.
- Send it.
Several issues:
- We could not defer decision if we should/can send some ND
option.
- It is hard to see the packet format at a glance.
- ICMPv6 header was built as temporary variable, and then
copied to the buffer.
- Some code path for Redirect was not shared.
With these patches, we do:
1) Calculate (or estimate) message length and option length.
2) Allocate skb (via new ndisc_skb_alloc()).
3) Fill-in ICMPv6 message directly using compound literals.
4) Fill-in ICMPv6 checksum
5) Build IPv6 header (including length)
6) Send the packet (via ndisc_send_skb()).
- allocate temporary dst and send it.
- We can defer calculating real length of the packet.
For example, we can give up filling some option at when
filling in.
- Message is built directly without temporary buffer.
- Structures defined for message format is easier to understand
what is being built.
- NS/NA/RS/Redirect share same logic.
- Reduced code/data size:

264955 14109 3488 282552 44fb8 new/net/ipv6/ipv6.o

we can use skb->len when filling checksum in ICMPv6 header,
and then build IP header with length field.

- move ip6_nd_hdr() to its users' source files.
In net/ipv6/mcast.c, it will be called ip6_mc_hdr().
- make return type to void since this function never fails.

This patch calls device_set_wakeup_enable() inside set_wol
callback, so that turning on WOL from user mode utility
can make the 'wakeup' of pegasus device to be enabled, then
remote wakeup may be enabled before putting into sleep.

When processing the unregister notify for a hard interface, removing
the sysfs files may lead to a circular deadlock (rtnl mutex <->
s_active).
To overcome this problem, postpone the sysfs removal in a worker.

When the physical function (PF) is reset for any reason the statistics
collection in ixgbevf_update_stats needs to wait to update until after
the reset synchronization ensures that the PF driver is up and running
and is finished with its own reset. Go ahead and clear the link flag to
indicate this when the control message from the PF is received. The
reset synchronization and recovery in the watchdog task will eventually
set the link flag up when the PF has resumed.
