 - added typedef unsigned int __nocast gfp_t;

 - replaced __nocast uses for gfp flags with gfp_t - it gives exactly
   the same warnings as far as sparse is concerned, doesn't change
   generated code (from gcc point of view we replaced unsigned int with
   typedef) and documents what's going on far better.

Instead, set it in one place, namely the beginning of
netif_receive_skb().

Based upon suggestions from Jamal Hadi Salim.

Bonding just wants the device before the skb_bond()
decapsulation occurs, so simply pass that original
device into packet_type-&gt;func() as an argument.

It remains to be seen whether we can use this same
exact thing to get rid of skb-&gt;input_dev as well.

This fixes a race during initialization with the NAPI softirq
processing by using an RCU approach.

This race was discovered when refill_skbs() was added to
the setup code.

If the current task has signal_pending(), the loop we have
to wait for the __LINK_STATE_RX_SCHED bit to clear becomes
a pure busy-loop.

Fixed by using msleep() instead of the hand-crafted version.

Noticed by Andrew Morton.
