nfsd: fail module init on reply cache init failure
If the reply cache initialization fails due to a kmalloc failure,
currently we try to soldier on with a reduced (or nonexistant) reply
cache.
Better to just fail immediately: the failure is then much easier to
understand and debug, and it could save us complexity in some later
code. (But actually, it doesn't help currently because the cache is
also turned off in some odd failure cases; we should probably find a
better way to handle those failure cases some day.)

nfsd: Fix handling of negative lengths in read_buf()
The length "nbytes" passed into read_buf should never be negative, but
we check only for too-large values of "nbytes", not for too-small
values. Make nbytes unsigned, so it's clear that the former tests are
sufficient. (Despite this read_buf() currently correctly returns an xdr

[IPV4] route cache: Introduce rt_genid for smooth cache invalidation
Current ip route cache implementation is not suited to large caches.
We can consume a lot of CPU when cache must be invalidated, since we
currently need to evict all cache entries, and this eviction is
sometimes asynchronous. min_delay & max_delay can somewhat control this
asynchronism behavior, but whole thing is a kludge, regularly triggering
infamous soft lockup messages. When entries are still in use, this also
consumes a lot of ram, filling dst_garbage.list.
A better scheme is to use a generation identifier on each entry,
so that cache invalidation can be performed by changing the table
identifier, without having to scan all entries.
No more delayed flushing, no more stalling when secret_interval expires.
Invalidated entries will then be freed at GC time (controled by
ip_rt_gc_timeout or stress), or when an invalidated entry is found
in a chain when an insert is done.
Thus we keep a normal equilibrium.
This patch :
- renames rt_hash_rnd to rt_genid (and makes it an atomic_t)
- Adds a new rt_genid field to 'struct rtable' (filling a hole on 64bit)

sysctl_string return 1 on success,it should call
tcp_set_allowed_congestion_control to set the allowed congestion
control.But, it don't. the sysctl_string return 1 on success,
otherwise return negative, never return 0.The patch fix the problem.

[IPV4] fib_trie: rescan if key is lost during dump
Normally during a dump the key of the last dumped entry is used for
continuation, but since lock is dropped it might be lost. In that case
fallback to the old counter based N^2 behaviour. This means the dump
will end up skipping some routes which matches what FIB_HASH does.

[PKTGEN]: Remove an unused definition in pktgen.c.
- Remove an unused definition (LAT_BUCKETS_MAX) in net/core/pktgen.c.
- Remove the corresponding comment.
- The LAT_BUCKETS_MAX seems to have to do with a patch from a long
time ago which was not applied (Ben Greear), which dealt with latency
counters.
See, for example : http://oss.sgi.com/archives/netdev/2002-09/msg00184.html

[IPV6]: Update MSS even if MTU is unchanged.
This is needed because in ndisc.c, we have:
static void ndisc_router_discovery(struct sk_buff *skb)
{
// ...
if (ndopts.nd_opts_mtu) {
// ...
if (rt)
rt->u.dst.metrics[RTAX_MTU-1] = mtu;
rt6_mtu_change(skb->dev, mtu);
// ...
}
Since the mtu is set directly here, rt6_mtu_change_route thinks that
it is unchanged, and so it fails to update the MSS accordingly. This
patch lets rt6_mtu_change_route still update MSS if old_mtu == new_mtu.
