That quirk is required to make USB Ethernet gadget working on HW that
can't cope with unaligned DMA. For some reason only f_ncm sets up that
quirk, let's setup it directly in u_ether so other network models would
have that quirk applied as well. All network models have been tested with
ChipIdea UDC driver on NVIDIA Tegra20 SoC that require DMA to be aligned.

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.

Make these functions (skb_put, __skb_put and pskb_put) return void *
and remove all the casts across the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only
where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the
following spatch:

    @@
    expression SKB, LEN;
    typedef u8;
    identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put };
    @@
    - *(fn(SKB, LEN))
    + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)

    @@
    expression E, SKB, LEN;
    identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put };
    type T;
    @@
    - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN)))
    + E = fn(SKB, LEN)

which actually doesn't cover pskb_put since there are only three
users overall.

A handful of stragglers were converted manually, notably a macro in
drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_bsdcomp.c and, oddly enough, one of the many
instances in net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c. In the former file, I also
had to fix one whitespace problem spatch introduced.

this.

These files all use functions declared in interrupt.h, but currently rely
on implicit inclusion of this file (via netns/xfrm.h).

That won't work anymore when the flow cache is removed so include that

ktime_set(S,N) was required for the timespec storage type and is still
useful for situations where a Seconds and Nanoseconds part of a time value
needs to be converted. For anything where the Seconds argument is 0, this
is pointless and can be replaced with a simple assignment.

dev_kfree_skb_any() is used to free packets that are dropped by the
network stack. Therefore the function should not be used for packets
that have been successfully processed by the network stack. Instead
dev_consume_skb_any() has to be used for such consumed packets.

This separation helps to identify dropped packets.
