Change net/core, ipv4 and ipv6 sysctl variables to __read_mostly.
Couldn't actually measure any performance increase while testing (.3%
I consider noise), but seems like the right thing to do.

Adds rtnl_notify() to send rtnetlink notification messages and
rtnl_set_sk_err() to report notification errors as socket
errors in order to indicate the need of a resync due to loss
of events.
nlmsg_report() is added to properly document the meaning of
NLM_F_ECHO.

Adds nlmsg_notify() implementing proper notification logic. The
message is multicasted to all listeners in the group. The
applications the requests orignates from can request a unicast
back report in which case said socket will be excluded from the
multicast to avoid duplicated notifications.
nlmsg_multicast() is extended to take allocation flags to
allow notification in atomic contexts.

Several IR drivers used "for (i = 0; i < 4; i++)" to walk their
dev_self[] table. Better to use ARRAY_SIZE(). And fix ali-ircc so it
won't run off the end if we find too many adapters.

Introduce RTA_TABLE route attribute and FRA_TABLE routing rule attribute
to hold 32 bit routing table IDs. Usespace compatibility is provided by
continuing to accept and send the rtm_table field, but because of its
limited size it can only carry the low 8 bits of the table ID. This
implies that if larger IDs are used, _all_ userspace programs using them
need to use RTA_TABLE.
