d556ad4bbe PCI: add PCI-X/PCI-Express read control interfaces
This patch introduces an interface to read and write PCI-X / PCI-Express 
maximum read byte count values from PCI config space. There is a second 
function that returns the maximum _designed_ read byte count, which marks the 
maximum value for a device, since some drivers try to set MMRBC to the 
highest allowed value and rely on such a function.

Also add a PPPIOCGL2TPSTATS ioctl to allow userspace to obtain
L2TP counters and state from the kernel.

342f0234c7 [UDP]: Introduce UDP encapsulation type for L2TP
This patch adds a new UDP_ENCAP_L2TPINUDP encapsulation type for UDP
sockets. When a UDP socket's encap_type is UDP_ENCAP_L2TPINUDP, the
skb is delivered to a function pointed to by the udp_sock's
encap_rcv funcptr. If the skb isn't wanted by L2TP, it returns >0, which
causes it to be passed through to UDP.

Include padding to put the new encap_rcv field on a 4-byte boundary.

Previously, the only user of UDP encap sockets was ESP, so when
CONFIG_XFRM was not defined, some of the encap code was compiled
out. This patch changes that. As a result, udp_encap_rcv() will
now do a little more work when CONFIG_XFRM is not defined.

59fbb3a61e [IPV6] MIP6: Loadable module support for MIPv6.
This patch makes MIPv6 loadable module named "mip6".

Here is a modprobe.conf(5) example to load it automatically
when user application uses XFRM state for MIPv6:

alias xfrm-type-10-43 mip6
alias xfrm-type-10-60 mip6

Some MIPv6 feature is not included by this modular, however,
it should not be affected to other features like either IPsec
or IPv6 with and without the patch.
We may discuss XFRM, MH (RAW socket) and ancillary data/sockopt
separately for future work.

Loadable features:
* MH receiving check (to send ICMP error back)
* RO header parsing and building (i.e. RH2 and HAO in DSTOPTS)
* XFRM policy/state database handling for RO

These are NOT covered as loadable:
* Home Address flags and its rule on source address selection
* XFRM sub policy (depends on its own kernel option)
* XFRM functions to receive RO as IPv6 extension header
* MH sending/receiving through raw socket if user application
  opens it (since raw socket allows to do so)
* RH2 sending as ancillary data
* RH2 operation with setsockopt(2)

Add a nested compat attribute type that can be used to convert

The attribute looks like this:

struct {

        struct rtattr {
                .rta_len        = total size,
                .rta_type       = type,
        } rta;
        struct old_structure struct;

        [ nested top-level attribute ]
        struct rtattr {
                .rta_len        = nest size,
                .rta_type       = type,
        } nest_attr;

        [ optional 0 .. n nested attributes ]
        struct rtattr {
                .rta_len        = private attribute len,
                .rta_type       = private attribute typ,
        } nested_attr;
        struct nested_data data;
};

Since both userspace and kernel deal correctly with attributes that are
larger than expected old versions will just parse the compat part and
ignore the rest.

334a8132d9 [SKBUFF]: Keep track of writable header len of headerless clones
Currently NAT (and others) that want to modify cloned skbs copy them,
even if in the vast majority of cases its not necessary because the
skb is a clone made by TCP and the portion NAT wants to modify is
actually writable because TCP release the header reference before
cloning.

The problem is that there is no clean way for NAT to find out how
long the writable header area is, so this patch introduces skb->hdr_len
to hold this length. When a headerless skb is cloned skb->hdr_len
is set to the current headroom, for regular clones it is copied from
the original. A new function skb_clone_writable(skb, len) returns
whether the skb is writable up to len bytes from skb->data. To avoid
enlarging the skb the mac_len field is reduced to 16 bit and the
new hdr_len field is put in the remaining 16 bit.

I've done a few rough benchmarks of NAT (not with this exact patch,
but a very similar one). As expected it saves huge amounts of system
time in case of sendfile, bringing it down to basically the same
amount as without NAT, with sendmsg it only helps on loopback,
probably because of the large MTU.

Transmit a 1GB file using sendfile/sendmsg over eth0/lo with and
without NAT:

- sendfile eth0, no NAT:	sys     0m0.388s
- sendfile eth0, NAT:		sys     0m1.835s
- sendfile eth0: NAT + path:	sys     0m0.370s	(~ -80%)

- sendfile lo, no NAT:		sys     0m0.258s
- sendfile lo, NAT:		sys     0m2.609s
- sendfile lo, NAT + patch:	sys     0m0.260s	(~ -90%)

- sendmsg eth0, no NAT:		sys     0m2.508s
- sendmsg eth0, NAT:		sys     0m2.539s
- sendmsg eth0, NAT + patch:	sys     0m2.445s	(no change)

- sendmsg lo, no NAT:		sys	0m2.151s
- sendmsg lo, NAT:		sys     0m3.557s
- sendmsg lo, NAT + patch:	sys     0m2.159s	(~ -40%)

I expect other users can see a similar performance improvement,
packet mangling iptables targets, ipip and ip_gre come to mind ..

f1c91da447 [KTIME]: Introduce ktime_us_delta
This provides a reusable time difference function which returns the difference in
microseconds, as often used in the DCCP code.

Commiter note: renamed ktime_delta to ktime_us_delta and put it in ktime.h.
