Followup of commit f2c31e32b378a (fix NULL dereferences in
check_peer_redir()).

We need to make sure dst neighbour doesnt change in dst_ifdown().

Fix some sparse errors.

Now that there is a one-to-one correspondance between neighbour
and hh_cache entries, we no longer need:

1) dynamic allocation
2) attachment to dst-&gt;hh
3) refcounting

Initialization of the hh_cache entry is indicated by hh_len
being non-zero, and such initialization is always done with
the neighbour's lock held as a writer.

<title>ipv6: Don't put artificial limit on routing table size.</title>

IPV6, unlike IPV4, doesn't have a routing cache.

Routing table entries, as well as clones made in response
to route lookup requests, all live in the same table.  And
all of these things are together collected in the destination
cache table for ipv6.

This means that routing table entries count against the garbage
collection limits, even though such entries cannot ever be reclaimed
and are added explicitly by the administrator (rather than being
created in response to lookups).

Therefore it makes no sense to count ipv6 routing table entries
against the GC limits.

Add a DST_NOCOUNT destination cache entry flag, and skip the counting
if it is set.  Use this flag bit in ipv6 when adding routing table
entries.

Commit e66eed651fd1 ("list: remove prefetching from regular list
iterators") removed the include of prefetch.h from list.h, which
uncovered several cases that had apparently relied on that rather
obscure header file dependency.

So this fixes things up a bit, using

   grep -L linux/prefetch.h $(git grep -l '[^a-z_]prefetchw*(' -- '*.[ch]')
   grep -L 'prefetchw*(' $(git grep -l 'linux/prefetch.h' -- '*.[ch]')

to guide us in finding files that either need &lt;linux/prefetch.h&gt;
inclusion, or have it despite not needing it.

There are more of them around (mostly network drivers), but this gets
many core ones.

It's way past it's usefulness.  And this gets rid of a bunch
of stray -&gt;rt_{dst,src} references.

Even the comment documenting the macro was inaccurate (stated
default was 1 when it's 0).

If reintroduced, it should be done properly, with dynamic debug
facilities.

Make dst_alloc() and it's users explicitly initialize the entire
entry.

The zero'ing done by kmem_cache_zalloc() was almost entirely
redundant.
