sock_cmsg_send() can return different error codes and not only
-EINVAL, and we should properly propagate them.

<title>packet: fix second argument of sock_tx_timestamp()</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch fixes an issue that a syscall (e.g. sendto syscall) cannot
work correctly. Since the sendto syscall doesn't have msg_control buffer,
the sock_tx_timestamp() in packet_snd() cannot work correctly because
the socks.tsflags is set to 0.
So, this patch sets the socks.tsflags to sk-&gt;sk_tsflags as default.

<title>packet: Use symmetric hash for PACKET_FANOUT_HASH.</title>

<id>eb70db8756717b90c01ccc765fdefc4dd969fc74</id>
<content type='text'>
People who use PACKET_FANOUT_HASH want a symmetric hash, meaning that
they want packets going in both directions on a flow to hash to the
same bucket.

The core kernel SKB hash became non-symmetric when the ipv6 flow label
and other entities were incorporated into the standard flow hash order
to increase entropy.

But there are no users of PACKET_FANOUT_HASH who want an assymetric
hash, they all want a symmetric one.

Therefore, use the flow dissector to compute a flat symmetric hash
over only the protocol, addresses and ports.  This hash does not get
installed into and override the normal skb hash, so this change has
no effect whatsoever on the rest of the stack.

<title>bpf: refactor bpf_prog_get and type check into helper</title>

<content type='text'>
Since bpf_prog_get() and program type check is used in a couple of places,
refactor this into a small helper function that we can make use of. Since
the non RO prog-&gt;aux part is not used in performance critical paths and a
program destruction via RCU is rather very unlikley when doing the put, we
shouldn't have an issue just doing the bpf_prog_get() + prog-&gt;type != type
check, but actually not taking the ref at all (due to being in fdget() /
fdput() section of the bpf fd) is even cleaner and makes the diff smaller
as well, so just go for that. Callsites are changed to make use of the new
helper where possible.

<title>packet: compat support for sock_fprog</title>

Socket option PACKET_FANOUT_DATA takes a struct sock_fprog as argument
if PACKET_FANOUT has mode PACKET_FANOUT_CBPF. This structure contains
a pointer into user memory. If userland is 32-bit and kernel is 64-bit
the two disagree about the layout of struct sock_fprog.

Add compat setsockopt support to convert a 32-bit compat_sock_fprog to
a 64-bit sock_fprog. This is analogous to compat_sock_fprog support for
SO_REUSEPORT added in commit 1957598840f4 ("soreuseport: add compat
case for setsockopt SO_ATTACH_REUSEPORT_CBPF").

Conflicts were two cases of simple overlapping changes,
nothing serious.

In the UDP case, we need to add a hlist_add_tail_rcu()
to linux/rculist.h, because we've moved UDP socket handling
away from using nulls lists.

consume_skb() isn't for error cases that kfree_skb() is more proper
