Commit 709b46e8d90badda1898caea50483c12af178e96 ("net: Add compat
ioctl support for the ipv4 multicast ioctl SIOCGETSGCNT") added the
correct plumbing to handle SIOCGETSGCNT properly.

However, whilst definiting a proper "struct compat_sioc_sg_req" it
isn't actually used in ipmr_compat_ioctl().

Correct this oversight.

SIOCGETSGCNT is not a unique ioctl value as it it maps tio SIOCPROTOPRIVATE +1,
which unfortunately means the existing infrastructure for compat networking
ioctls is insufficient.  A trivial compact ioctl implementation would conflict
with:

SIOCAX25ADDUID
SIOCAIPXPRISLT
SIOCGETSGCNT_IN6
SIOCGETSGCNT
SIOCRSSCAUSE
SIOCX25SSUBSCRIP
SIOCX25SDTEFACILITIES

To make this work I have updated the compat_ioctl decode path to mirror the
the normal ioctl decode path.  I have added an ipv4 inet_compat_ioctl function
so that I can have ipv4 specific compat ioctls.   I have added a compat_ioctl
function into struct proto so I can break out ioctls by which kind of ip socket
I am using.  I have added a compat_raw_ioctl function because SIOCGETSGCNT only
works on raw sockets.  I have added a ipmr_compat_ioctl that mirrors the normal
ipmr_ioctl.

This was necessary because unfortunately the struct layout for the SIOCGETSGCNT
has unsigned longs in it so changes between 32bit and 64bit kernels.

This change was sufficient to run a 32bit ip multicast routing daemon on a
64bit kernel.

When we test rt-&gt;fl.iif against zero, we're seeing if it's
an output or an input route.

Make that explicit with some helper functions.

Use RCU and RTNL to protect (struct mr_table)-&gt;mroute_sk

Readers use RCU, writers use RTNL.

ip_ra_control() already use an RCU grace period before
ip_ra_destroy_rcu(), so we dont need synchronize_rcu() in
mrtsock_destruct()
