====================
Netfilter fixes for net

The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for net:

1) Remove the skb_ext_del from nf_reset, and renames it to a more
   fitting nf_reset_ct(). Patch from Florian Westphal.

2) Fix deadlock in nft_connlimit between packet path updates and
   the garbage collector.

If any of the param or info_get op returns error, dumpit cb is
skipping to dump remaining params or info_get ops for all the
drivers.

Fix to not return if any of the param/info_get op returns error
as not supported and continue to dump remaining information.

v2: Modify the patch to return error, except for params/info_get
op that return -EOPNOTSUPP as suggested by Andrew Lunn. Also, modify
commit message to reflect the same.

commit 174e23810cd31
("sk_buff: drop all skb extensions on free and skb scrubbing") made napi
recycle always drop skb extensions.  The additional skb_ext_del() that is
performed via nf_reset on napi skb recycle is not needed anymore.

Most nf_reset() calls in the stack are there so queued skb won't block
'rmmod nf_conntrack' indefinitely.

This removes the skb_ext_del from nf_reset, and renames it to a more
fitting nf_reset_ct().

In a few selected places, add a call to skb_ext_reset to make sure that
no active extensions remain.

I am submitting this for "net", because we're still early in the release
cycle.  The patch applies to net-next too, but I think the rename causes
needless divergence between those trees.

<title>net: Unpublish sk from sk_reuseport_cb before call_rcu</title>

<id>8c7138b33e5c690c308b2a7085f6313fdcb3f616</id>
<content type='text'>
The "reuse-&gt;sock[]" array is shared by multiple sockets.  The going away
sk must unpublish itself from "reuse-&gt;sock[]" before making call_rcu()
call.  However, this unpublish-action is currently done after a grace
period and it may cause use-after-free.

The fix is to move reuseport_detach_sock() to sk_destruct().
Due to the above reason, any socket with sk_reuseport_cb has
to go through the rcu grace period before freeing it.

It is a rather old bug (~3 yrs).  The Fixes tag is not necessary
the right commit but it is the one that introduced the SOCK_RCU_FREE
logic and this fix is depending on it.

Now that we have a 3rd extension, add a new helper that drops the
extension space and use it when we need to scrub an sk_buff.

At this time, scrubbing clears secpath and bridge netfilter data, but
retains the tc skb extension, after this patch all three get cleared.

NAPI reuse/free assumes we can only have a secpath attached to skb, but
it seems better to clear all extensions there as well.

v2: add unlikely hint (Eric Dumazet)

Pull core timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Timers and timekeeping updates:

   - A large overhaul of the posix CPU timer code which is a preparation
     for moving the CPU timer expiry out into task work so it can be
     properly accounted on the task/process.

     An update to the bogus permission checks will come later during the
     merge window as feedback was not complete before heading of for
     travel.

   - Switch the timerqueue code to use cached rbtrees and get rid of the
     homebrewn caching of the leftmost node.

   - Consolidate hrtimer_init() + hrtimer_init_sleeper() calls into a
     single function

   - Implement the separation of hrtimers to be forced to expire in hard
     interrupt context even when PREEMPT_RT is enabled and mark the
     affected timers accordingly.

   - Implement a mechanism for hrtimers and the timer wheel to protect
     RT against priority inversion and live lock issues when a (hr)timer
     which should be canceled is currently executing the callback.
     Instead of infinitely spinning, the task which tries to cancel the
     timer blocks on a per cpu base expiry lock which is held and
     released by the (hr)timer expiry code.

   - Enable the Hyper-V TSC page based sched_clock for Hyper-V guests
     resulting in faster access to timekeeping functions.

   - Updates to various clocksource/clockevent drivers and their device
     tree bindings.

   - The usual small improvements all over the place"

Pull core timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Timers and timekeeping updates:

   - A large overhaul of the posix CPU timer code which is a preparation
     for moving the CPU timer expiry out into task work so it can be
     properly accounted on the task/process.

     An update to the bogus permission checks will come later during the
     merge window as feedback was not complete before heading of for
     travel.

   - Switch the timerqueue code to use cached rbtrees and get rid of the
     homebrewn caching of the leftmost node.

   - Consolidate hrtimer_init() + hrtimer_init_sleeper() calls into a
     single function

   - Implement the separation of hrtimers to be forced to expire in hard
     interrupt context even when PREEMPT_RT is enabled and mark the
     affected timers accordingly.

   - Implement a mechanism for hrtimers and the timer wheel to protect
     RT against priority inversion and live lock issues when a (hr)timer
     which should be canceled is currently executing the callback.
     Instead of infinitely spinning, the task which tries to cancel the
     timer blocks on a per cpu base expiry lock which is held and
     released by the (hr)timer expiry code.

   - Enable the Hyper-V TSC page based sched_clock for Hyper-V guests
     resulting in faster access to timekeeping functions.

   - Updates to various clocksource/clockevent drivers and their device
     tree bindings.

   - The usual small improvements all over the place"
