dcbnl: Add support for setapp/getapp commands to dcbnl
This patch adds dcbnl command definitions to support setapp/getapp
functionality from the IEEE 802.1Qaz Data Center Bridging Capability
Exchange protocol (DCBX) specification. Section 3.3 defines the
application protocol and its 802.1p user priority in DCBX, which is
implemented here as a pair of setapp/getapp commands in the kernel
dcbnl for setting and retrieving the user priority for an given
application protocol. The protocol is identified by the combination of
an id and an idtype. Currently, when idtype is 0, the corresponding
id gives the ether type of this protocol, e.g., for FCoE, it will be
0x8906; when idtype is 1, then the corresponding id gives the TCP or
UDP port number.

Say twdr->slot = 1 and we are running inet_twdr_hangman and in this

twdr->slot = 2.
Next, a connection is closed and tcp_time_wait(TCP_FIN_WAIT2, timeo)
is called which will create a new FIN_WAIT2 time-wait socket and will
place it in the last to be reached slot, i.e. twdr->slot = 1.
At this point say inet_twdr_twkill_work will run which will start
destroying the time-wait sockets in slot 1, including the just added
TCP_FIN_WAIT2 one.
To avoid this issue we increment the slot only if all entries in the
slot have been purged.
This change may delay the slots cleanup by a time-wait death row
period but only if the worker thread didn't had the time to run/purge
the current slot in the next period (6 seconds with default sysctl

qlge: Get rid of 'default' rx_ring type.
Currently we have three types of RX rings.
1) Default ring - services rx_ring for broadcast/multicast, handles
firmware events, and errors.
2) TX completion ring - handles only outbound completions.
3) RSS ring - handles only inbound completions.
This patch gets rid of the default ring type and moves it's functionality
into the first RSS ring. This makes better use of MSIX vectors since
they are a limited resource on some platforms.

bonding: Have bond_check_dev_link examine netif_running
bonding: Have bond_check_dev_link examine netif_running
Some network devices do not call netif_carrier_off when they
are set administratively down. Have the bonding link check function
also inspect the netif_running state. Ignore netif_running if the
bond_check_dev_link function is called with "reporting" set, as in that
case it's inspecting the capabilities of the non-netif_carrier device
driver.
