====================
Netfilter updates for net-next

This a bit large (and late) patchset that contains Netfilter updates for
net-next. Most relevantly br_netfilter fixes, ipset RCU support, removal of
x_tables percpu ruleset copy and rework of the nf_tables netdev support. More
specifically, they are:

1) Warn the user when there is a better protocol conntracker available, from
   Marcelo Ricardo Leitner.

2) Fix forwarding of IPv6 fragmented traffic in br_netfilter, from Bernhard
   Thaler. This comes with several patches to prepare the change in first place.

3) Get rid of special mtu handling of PPPoE/VLAN frames for br_netfilter. This
   is not needed anymore since now we use the largest fragment size to
   refragment, from Florian Westphal.

4) Restore vlan tag when refragmenting in br_netfilter, also from Florian.

5) Get rid of the percpu ruleset copy in x_tables, from Florian. Plus another
   follow up patch to refine it from Eric Dumazet.

6) Several ipset cleanups, fixes and finally RCU support, from Jozsef Kadlecsik.

7) Get rid of parens in Netfilter Kconfig files.

8) Attach the net_device to the basechain as opposed to the initial per table
   approach in the nf_tables netdev family.

9) Subscribe to netdev events to detect the removal and registration of a
   device that is referenced by a basechain.

since commit d6b915e29f4adea9
("ip_fragment: don't forward defragmented DF packet") the largest
fragment size is available in the IPCB.

Therefore we no longer need to care about 'encapsulation'
overhead of stripped PPPOE/VLAN headers since ip_do_fragment
doesn't use device mtu in such cases.

We currently always send fragments without DF bit set.

Thus, given following setup:

mtu1500 - mtu1500:1400 - mtu1400:1280 - mtu1280
   A           R1              R2         B

Where R1 and R2 run linux with netfilter defragmentation/conntrack
enabled, then if Host A sent a fragmented packet _with_ DF set to B, R1
will respond with icmp too big error if one of these fragments exceeded
1400 bytes.

However, if R1 receives fragment sizes 1200 and 100, it would
forward the reassembled packet without refragmenting, i.e.
R2 will send an icmp error in response to a packet that was never sent,
citing mtu that the original sender never exceeded.

The other minor issue is that a refragmentation on R1 will conceal the
MTU of R2-B since refragmentation does not set DF bit on the fragments.

This modifies ip_fragment so that we track largest fragment size seen
both for DF and non-DF packets, and set frag_max_size to the largest
value.

If the DF fragment size is larger or equal to the non-df one, we will
consider the packet a path mtu probe:
We set DF bit on the reassembled skb and also tag it with a new IPCB flag
to force refragmentation even if skb fits outdev mtu.

We will also set DF bit on each fragment in this case.

Joint work with Hannes Frederic Sowa.

When bridge netfilter re-fragments an IP packet for output, all
packets that can not be re-fragmented to their original input size
should be silently discarded.

However, current bridge netfilter output path generates an ICMP packet
with 'size exceeded MTU' message for such packets, this is a bug.

This patch refactors the ip_fragment() API to allow two separate
use cases. The bridge netfilter user case will not
send ICMP, the routing output will, as before.

__ip_local_out_sk() is only used from net/ipv4/ip_output.c

net/ipv4/ip_output.c:94:5: warning: symbol '__ip_local_out_sk' was not
declared. Should it be static?

On the output paths in particular, we have to sometimes deal with two
socket contexts.  First, and usually skb->sk, is the local socket that
generated the frame.

And second, is potentially the socket used to control a tunneling
socket, such as one the encapsulates using UDP.

We do not want to disassociate skb->sk when encapsulating in order
to fix this, because that would break socket memory accounting.

The most extreme case where this can cause huge problems is an
AF_PACKET socket transmitting over a vxlan device.  We hit code
paths doing checks that assume they are dealing with an ipv4
socket, but are actually operating upon the AF_PACKET one.
