netns: keep vlan slaves on master netns move
previously, if a vlan master device was moved from one network namespace
to another, all 802.1q and macvlan slaves were deleted.
we can use dev->reg_state to figure out whether dev_change_net_namespace
is happening, since that won't set dev->reg_state NETREG_UNREGISTERING.
so, this changes 8021q and macvlan to ignore NETDEV_UNREGISTER when
reg_state is not NETREG_UNREGISTERING.

stmmac: consolidate and tidy-up the COE support
The first version of the driver had hard-coded the logic
for handling the checksum offloading.
This was designed according to the chips included in
the STM platforms where:
o MAC10/100 supports no COE at all.
o GMAC fully supports RX/TX COE.
This is not good for other chip configurations where,
for example, the mac10/100 supports the tx csum in HW
or when the GMAC has no IPC.
Thanks to Johannes Stezenbach; he provided me a first
draft of this patch that only reviewed the IPC for the
GMAC devices.
This patch also helps on SPEAr platforms where the
MAC10/100 can perform the TX csum in HW.
Thanks to Deepak SIKRI for his support on this.
In the end, GMAC devices for STM platforms have
a bugged Jumbo frame support that needs to have
the Tx COE disabled for oversized frames (due to
limited buffer sizes). This information is also
passed through the driver's platform structure.

- on first loading CCID3, ccid_new() zeroes out all fields in the socket;

2. when for some odd reason the sample value equalled 0, this triggered a bug
warning about "bogus Ack", due to the ambiguity of the return value;
3. on a passive host which has not sent anything the TX history is empty and
thus will lead to unwanted "bogus Ack" warnings such as
ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv: server(
e7b7d518): DATAACK with bogus ACK-
28197148
ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv: server(
e7b7d518): DATAACK with bogus ACK-
26641606.
The fix is to replace the implicit encoding by performing the steps manually.
Furthermore, the "bogus Ack" warning has been removed, since it can actually be
triggered due to several reasons (network reordering, old packet, (3) above),
hence it is not very useful.

dccp ccid-3: A lower bound for the inter-packet scheduling algorithm
This fixes a subtle bug in the calculation of the inter-packet gap and shows
that t_delta, as it is currently used, is not needed.
The algorithm from RFC 5348, 8.3 below continually computes a send time t_nom,
which is initialised with the current time t_now; t_gran = 1E6 / HZ specifies
the scheduling granularity, s the packet size, and X the sending rate:
t_distance = t_nom - t_now; // in microseconds
t_delta = min(t_ipi, t_gran) / 2; // `delta' parameter in microseconds
if (t_distance >= t_delta) {
reschedule after (t_distance / 1000) milliseconds;
} else {
t_ipi = s / X; // inter-packet interval in usec
t_nom += t_ipi; // compute the next send time
send packet now;
}
Problem:
--------
Rescheduling requires a conversion into milliseconds (sk_reset_timer()). The
highest jiffy resolution with HZ=1000 is 1 millisecond, so using a higher
granularity does not make much sense here.
As a consequence, values of t_distance < 1000 are truncated to 0. This issue
has so far been resolved by using instead
if (t_distance >= t_delta + 1000)
reschedule after (t_distance / 1000) milliseconds;
This is unnecessarily large, a lower bound is t_delta' = max(t_delta, 1000).
And it implies a further simplification:
a) when HZ >= 500, then t_delta <= t_gran/2 = 10^6/(2*HZ) <= 1000, so that
t_delta' = MAX(1000, t_delta) = 1000 (constant value);
b) when HZ < 500, then t_delta = 1/2*MIN(rtt, t_ipi, t_gran) <= t_gran/2,
so that 1000 <= t_delta' <= t_gran/2.
The maximum error of using a constant t_delta in (b) is less than half a jiffy.
Fix:
----
The patch replaces t_delta with a constant, whose value depends on CONFIG_HZ,
changing the above algorithm to:
if (t_distance >= t_delta')
reschedule after (t_distance / 1000) milliseconds;
where t_delta' = 10^6/(2*HZ) if HZ < 500, and t_delta' = 1000 otherwise.
