tun: Add support for RFS on tun flows
This patch adds support so that the rps_flow_tables (RFS) can be
programmed using the tun flows which are already set up to track flows
for the purposes of queue selection.
On the receive path (corresponding to select_queue and tun_net_xmit) the
rxhash is saved in the flow_entry. The original code only does flow
lookup in select_queue, so this patch adds a flow lookup in tun_net_xmit
if num_queues == 1 (select_queue is not called from
dev_queue_xmit->netdev_pick_tx in that case).
The flow is recorded (processing CPU) in tun_flow_update (TX path), and
reset when flow is deleted.

slight optimization of addr compare for some modules
Joe Perches add ether_addr_equal_unaligned to test if
possibly unaligned to u16 Ethernet addresses are equal.
If CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is set, this uses
the slightly faster generic routine ether_addr_equal,
otherwise this uses memcmp.
So I use the recently added and possibly more efficient
ether_addr_equal_unaligned to instead of memcmp for slight
optimization.
v2: Because a lot of places are already using 16b aligned MAC
address for both operands, so use the ether_addr_equal to
instead of ether_addr_equal_unaligned.Thanks for Joe, Alex
and Antonio's opinions.
Also remove the patch for bridge.
v3: According Joe's suggestion, the patch
(net: slight optimization of addr compare for some modules)
should be broken into several patches, and it will be good
to review for maintainers. So I will send rest of the patches
for first step, and next step, I will seperate the netdev patch

net: vxlan: use custom ndo_change_mtu handler
When adding a new vxlan device to an "underlying carrier" (here:
dst->remote_ifindex), the MTU size assigned to the vxlan device
is the MTU at setup time of the carrier - needed headroom, when
adding a vxlan device w/o explicit carrier, then it defaults
to 1500.
In case of an explicit carrier that supports jumbo frames, we
currently cannot change vxlan MTU via ip(8) to > 1500 in
post-setup time, as vxlan driver uses eth_change_mtu() as default
method for manually setting MTU.
Hence, use a custom implementation that only falls back to
eth_change_mtu() in case we didn't use a dev parameter on device
setup time, and otherwise allow a max MTU setting of the carrier
incl. adjustment for headroom.

b44: use fixed PHY device if we do not find any
The ADM6996L switch and some Broadcom switches with two MII interfaces
like the BCM5325F connected to two MACs on the SoC, used on some
routers do not return a valid value when reading the PHY id register
and Linux thinks there is no PHY at all, but that is wrong.
This patch registers a fixed phy in the arch code and then searches it
when there is no other phy in the Ethernet driver code.

b44: do not set PHY address to 30 for every ext PHY
b44_phy_reset() will fail for an external PHY and only work with the
internal PHY, this was an old workaround when the detection of an
external switch based on the PHY address failed and it is not needed
any more.

b44: activate PHY when MAC is off
Without this patch we can not access the PHY when the MAC is switched
off. This PHY access is needed to configure the switch, which is done
through PHY registers.

b44: add phylib support
Most of the older home routers based on the Broadcom BCM47XX SoC series
are using a MAC that is supported by b44. On most of these routers not
the internal PHY of this MAC core is used, but a switch sometimes on an
external chip or integrated into the same SoC as the Ethernet core.
For this switch a special PHY driver is needed which should not be
integrated into b44 as the same switches are also used by other
Broadcom home networking SoCs which are using different Ethernet MAC
drivers. This was tested with the b53 switch driver which is currently
on its way to mainline.
If the internal PHY is not used, b44 will now search on the MDIO bus
for a phy and use the Linux phylib subsystem to register a driver.
Support for the internal PHY must stay here, because there are some
device which are suing the internal phy.
With this patch we scan the mdio bus when the sprom or nvram says that
the PHY address is 30, if a PHY was found at this address b44 uses it.
This was tested with a BCM4704, BCM4712 and BCM5354.

The next patch will add these functions for phylib, and we should
rename the old ones before. This now indicates that these functions are
used for the mdio registers and on the mii interface.

embedded home routers where this driver is used.

b44: check register instead of PHY address to detect external PHY
The Ethernet core supported by b44 supports an internal PHY integrated
into the mac core, which is supported by the b44 driver and an external
PHY to which the mac core is connected. This external PHY could be a
switch connected through MII, which is often the case when this core is
used on home routers. The usage of an external PHY was assumed when the
PHY address 30 was used and an internal PHY was assumed when the PHY
address was different. To verify that b44_phy_reset() was called and
checked if it worked, otherwise PHY address 30 was assumed, an external
PHY. It is better to check the register which says which PHY is
connected to the MAC instead of checking the PHY address.
The interface to an external PHY was only activated when this register
was set.
This also changes B44_FLAG_INTERNAL_PHY to B44_FLAG_EXTERNAL_PHY, it is
easier to check.

tcp: autocork should not hold first packet in write queue
Willem noticed a TCP_RR regression caused by TCP autocorking
on a Mellanox test bed. MLX4_EN_TX_COAL_TIME is 16 us, which can be
right above RTT between hosts.
We can receive a ACK for a packet still in NIC TX ring buffer or in a
softnet completion queue.
Fix this by always pushing the skb if it is at the head of write queue.
Also, as TX completion is lockless, it's safer to perform sk_wmem_alloc
test after setting TSQ_THROTTLED.
