<title>net: allow to call netif_reset_xps_queues() under cpus_read_lock</title>

<id>4d99f6602cb552fb58db0c3b1d935bb6fa017f24</id>
<content type='text'>
The definition of static_key_slow_inc() has cpus_read_lock in place. In the
virtio_net driver, XPS queues are initialized after setting the queue:cpu
affinity in virtnet_set_affinity() which is already protected within
cpus_read_lock. Lockdep prints a warning when we are trying to acquire
cpus_read_lock when it is already held.

This patch adds an ability to call __netif_set_xps_queue under
cpus_read_lock().

The BTF conflicts were simple overlapping changes.

The virtio_net conflict was an overlap of a fix of statistics counter,
happening alongisde a move over to a bonafide statistics structure
rather than counting value on the stack.

This is similar TC_ACT_REDIRECT, but with a slightly different
semantic:
- on ingress the mirred skbs are passed to the target device
network stack without any additional check not scrubbing.
- the rcu-protected stats provided via the tcf_result struct
  are updated on error conditions.

This new tcfa_action value is not exposed to the user-space
and can be used only internally by clsact.

v1 -&gt; v2: do not touch TC_ACT_REDIRECT code path, introduce
 a new action type instead
v2 -&gt; v3:
 - rename the new action value TC_ACT_REINJECT, update the
   helper accordingly
 - take care of uncloned reinjected packets in XDP generic
   hook
v3 -&gt; v4:
 - renamed again the new action value (JiriP)
v4 -&gt; v5:
 - fix build error with !NET_CLS_ACT (kbuild bot)

If an invalid MTU value is set through rtnetlink return extra error
information instead of putting message in kernel log. For other cases
where there is no visible API, keep the error report in the log.

Example:
	# ip li set dev enp12s0 mtu 10000
	Error: mtu greater than device maximum.

	# ifconfig enp12s0 mtu 10000
	SIOCSIFMTU: Invalid argument

Fix dev_change_tx_queue_len so it rolls back original value
upon a failure in dev_qdisc_change_tx_queue_len.
This is already done for notifirers' failures, share the code.

In case of failure in dev_qdisc_change_tx_queue_len, some tx queues
would still be of the new length, while they should be reverted.
Currently, the revert is not done, and is marked with a TODO label
in dev_qdisc_change_tx_queue_len, and should find some nice solution
to do it.
Yet it is still better to not apply the newly requested value.

gro_hash size is 192 bytes, and uses 3 cache lines, if there is few
flows, gro_hash may be not fully used, so it is unnecessary to iterate
all gro_hash in napi_gro_flush(), to occupy unnecessary cacheline.

convert gro_count to a bitmask, and rename it as gro_bitmask, each bit
represents a element of gro_hash, only flush a gro_hash element if the
related bit is set, to speed up napi_gro_flush().

and update gro_bitmask only if it will be changed, to reduce cache
