Merge branch 'metrics_restructure'
This patch series works towards the goal of minimizing the amount
of things that can change in an ipv4 route.
In a regime where the routing cache is removed, route changes will
lead to cloning in the FIB tables or similar.
The largest trigger of route metrics writes, TCP, now has it's own
cache of dynamic metric state. The timewait timestamps are stored
there now as well.
As a result of that, pre-cowing metrics is no longer necessary,
and therefore FLOWI_FLAG_PRECOW_METRICS is removed.
Redirect and PMTU handling is moved back into the ipv4 routes. I'm
sorry for all the headaches trying to do this in the inetpeer has
caused, it was the wrong approach for sure.
Since metrics become read-only for ipv4 we no longer need the inetpeer
hung off of the ipv4 routes either. So those disappear too.
Also, timewait sockets no longer need to hold onto an inetpeer either.
After this series, we still have some details to resolve wrt. PMTU and
redirects for a route-cache-less system:
1) With just the plain route cache removal, PMTU will continue to
work mostly fine. This is because of how the local route users
call down into the PMTU update code with the route they already
hold.
However, if we wish to cache pre-computed routes in fib_info
nexthops (which we want for performance), then we need to add
route cloning for PMTU events.
2) Redirects require more work. First, redirects must be changed to
be handled like PMTU. Wherein we call down into the sockets and
other entities, and then they call back into the routing code with
the route they were using.
So we'll be adding an ->update_nexthop() method alongside
->update_pmtu().
And then, like for PMTU, we'll need cloning support once we start
caching routes in the fib_info nexthops.
But that's it, we can completely pull the trigger and remove the
routing cache with minimal disruptions.
As it is, this patch series alone helps a lot of things. For one,
routing cache entry creation should be a lot faster, because we no
longer do inetpeer lookups (even to check if an entry exists).
This patch series also opens the door for non-DST_HOST ipv4 routes,
because nothing fundamentally cares about rt->rt_dst any more. It
can be removed with the base routing cache removal patch. In fact,
that was the primary goal of this patch series.

So lets refactor sctp_packet_bundle_auth to have an outer part that does the

So it should set needed_headroom & needed_tailroom to avoid

as a lazy way to check if it can push and put additional bytes in frame.
Avoid skb_copy_expand() expensive call, using following rules :
- We are allowed to push 4 bytes in headroom if skb_header_cloned()
is false (and if we have 4 bytes of headroom)
- We are allowed to put 4 bytes at tail if skb_cloned()
is false (and if we have 4 bytes of tailroom)

detaches all the addresses from the HW device, and then attaches the
updated list. This behavior is wrong from two aspects: first, it causes
a load of firmware commands and second, there is period of time where
the correct addresses are not attached, which turned into packet loss.
To improve - a copy of the multicast list is saved by the driver. For
every change in the multicast list, the multicast list copy is used
