Move the more esoteric helpers for netdev instance lock to
a dedicated header. This avoids growing netdevice.h to infinity
and makes rebuilding the kernel much faster (after touching
the header with the helpers).

The main netdev_lock() / netdev_unlock() functions are used
in static inlines in netdevice.h and will probably be used
most commonly, so keep them in netdevice.h.

<content type='text'>
Add two helper functions - rtnl_newlink_link_net() and
rtnl_newlink_peer_net() for netns fallback logic. Peer netns falls back
to link netns, and link netns falls back to source netns.

Convert the use of params-&gt;net in netdevice drivers to one of the helper
functions for clarity.

<title>rtnetlink: Pack newlink() params into struct</title>

<id>69c7be1b903fca2835e80ec506bd1d75ce84fb4d</id>
<content type='text'>
There are 4 net namespaces involved when creating links:

 - source netns - where the netlink socket resides,
 - target netns - where to put the device being created,
 - link netns - netns associated with the device (backend),
 - peer netns - netns of peer device.

Currently, two nets are passed to newlink() callback - "src_net"
parameter and "dev_net" (implicitly in net_device). They are set as
follows, depending on netlink attributes in the request.

 +------------+-------------------+---------+---------+
 | peer netns | IFLA_LINK_NETNSID | src_net | dev_net |
 +------------+-------------------+---------+---------+
 |            | absent            | source  | target  |
 | absent     +-------------------+---------+---------+
 |            | present           | link    | link    |
 +------------+-------------------+---------+---------+
 |            | absent            | peer    | target  |
 | present    +-------------------+---------+---------+
 |            | present           | peer    | link    |
 +------------+-------------------+---------+---------+

When IFLA_LINK_NETNSID is present, the device is created in link netns
first and then moved to target netns. This has some side effects,
including extra ifindex allocation, ifname validation and link events.
These could be avoided if we create it in target netns from
the beginning.

On the other hand, the meaning of src_net parameter is ambiguous. It
varies depending on how parameters are passed. It is the effective
link (or peer netns) by design, but some drivers ignore it and use
dev_net instead.

To provide more netns context for drivers, this patch packs existing
newlink() parameters, along with the source netns, link netns and peer
netns, into a struct. The old "src_net" is renamed to "net" to avoid
confusion with real source netns, and will be deprecated later. The use
of src_net are converted to params-&gt;net trivially.

If macsec is offloaded, we need to follow the lower device's
capabilities, like VLAN devices do.

Leave the limits unchanged when the offload is disabled.

<title>macsec: add some of the lower device's features when offloading</title>

<content type='text'>
This commit extends the set of netdevice features supported by macsec
devices when offload is enabled, which increases performance
significantly (for a single TCP stream: 17.5Gbps to 38.5Gbps on my
test machines).

Commit c850240b6c41 ("net: macsec: report real_dev features when HW
offloading is enabled") previously attempted something similar, but
had to be reverted (commit 8bcd560ae878 ("Revert "net: macsec: report
real_dev features when HW offloading is enabled"")) because the set of
features it exposed was too large.

During initialization, all features are set, and they're then removed
via ndo_fix_features (macsec_fix_features). This allows the
offloadable features to be automatically enabled if offloading is
turned on after device creation.

<title>macsec: Fix use-after-free while sending the offloading packet</title>

<id>f1e54d11b210b53d418ff1476c6b58a2f434dfc0</id>
<content type='text'>
KASAN reports the following UAF. The metadata_dst, which is used to
store the SCI value for macsec offload, is already freed by
metadata_dst_free() in macsec_free_netdev(), while driver still use it
for sending the packet.

To fix this issue, dst_release() is used instead to release
metadata_dst. So it is not freed instantly in macsec_free_netdev() if
still referenced by skb.

KASAN reports the following UAF. The metadata_dst, which is used to
store the SCI value for macsec offload, is already freed by
metadata_dst_free() in macsec_free_netdev(), while driver still use it
for sending the packet.

To fix this issue, dst_release() is used instead to release
metadata_dst. So it is not freed instantly in macsec_free_netdev() if
still referenced by skb.

<title>macsec: don't increment counters for an unrelated SA</title>

<content type='text'>
On RX, we shouldn't be incrementing the stats for an arbitrary SA in
case the actual SA hasn't been set up. Those counters are intended to
track packets for their respective AN when the SA isn't currently
configured. Due to the way MACsec is implemented, we don't keep
counters unless the SA is configured, so we can't track those packets,
and those counters will remain at 0.

The RXSC's stats keeps track of those packets without telling us which
AN they belonged to. We could add counters for non-existent SAs, and
then find a way to integrate them in the dump to userspace, but I
don't think it's worth the effort.

NETIF_F_LLTX can't be changed via Ethtool and is not a feature,
rather an attribute, very similar to IFF_NO_QUEUE (and hot).
Free one netdev_features_t bit and make it a "hot" private flag.
