The build_state callback of lwtunnel doesn't contain the net namespace
structure yet. This patch will add it so we can check on specific
address configuration at creation time of rpl source routes.

<title>net: mpls: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member</title>

<content type='text'>
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

<title>net: ipv6_stub: use ip6_dst_lookup_flow instead of ip6_dst_lookup</title>

ipv6_stub uses the ip6_dst_lookup function to allow other modules to
perform IPv6 lookups. However, this function skips the XFRM layer
entirely.

All users of ipv6_stub-&gt;ip6_dst_lookup use ip_route_output_flow (via the
ip_route_output_key and ip_route_output helpers) for their IPv4 lookups,
which calls xfrm_lookup_route(). This patch fixes this inconsistent
behavior by switching the stub to ip6_dst_lookup_flow, which also calls
xfrm_lookup_route().

This requires some changes in all the callers, as these two functions
take different arguments and have different return types.

When using mpls over gre/gre6 setup, rt-&gt;rt_gw4 address is not set, the
same for rt-&gt;rt_gw_family.  Therefore, when rt-&gt;rt_gw_family is checked
in mpls_xmit(), neigh_xmit() call is skipped. As a result, such setup
doesn't work anymore.

<title>proc/sysctl: add shared variables for range check</title>

<id>eec4844fae7c033a0c1fc1eb3b8517aeb8b6cc49</id>
<content type='text'>
In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range.  This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.

On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.

The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:

    $ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&amp;(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l
    248

Add a const int array containing the most commonly used values, some
macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them
instead of creating a local one for every object file.

This is the bloat-o-meter output comparing the old and new binary
compiled with the default Fedora config:

    # scripts/bloat-o-meter -d vmlinux.o.old vmlinux.o
    add/remove: 2/2 grow/shrink: 0/2 up/down: 24/-188 (-164)

Randy reported that selecting MPLS_ROUTING without PROC_FS breaks
the build, because since commit c1a9d65954c6 ("mpls: fix af_mpls
dependencies"), MPLS_ROUTING selects PROC_SYSCTL, but Kconfig's select
doesn't recursively handle dependencies.
Change the select into a dependency.

If you configure a route with multiple labels, e.g.
  ip route add 10.10.3.0/24 encap mpls 16/100 via 10.10.2.2 dev ens4
A warning is logged:
  kernel: [  130.561819] netlink: 'ip': attribute type 1 has an invalid
  length.

This happens because mpls_iptunnel_policy has set the type of
MPLS_IPTUNNEL_DST to fixed size NLA_U32.
Change it to a minimum size.
nla_get_labels() does the remaining validation.
