This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)

* Remove sentinel element from ctl_table structs.
* Remove the zeroing out of an array element (to make it look like a
  sentinel) in neigh_sysctl_register and lowpan_frags_ns_sysctl_register
  This is not longer needed and is safe after commit c899710fe7f9
  ("networking: Update to register_net_sysctl_sz") added the array size
  to the ctl_table registration.
* Replace the for loop stop condition in sysctl_core_net_init that tests
  for procname == NULL with one that depends on array size
* Removed the "-1" in mpls_net_init that adjusted for having an extra
  empty element when looping over ctl_table arrays
* Use a table_size variable to keep the value of ARRAY_SIZE

I added dst_rt6_info() in commit
e8dfd42c17fa ("ipv6: introduce dst_rt6_info() helper")

This patch does a similar change for IPv4.

Instead of (struct rtable *)dst casts, we can use :

 #define dst_rtable(_ptr) \
             container_of_const(_ptr, struct rtable, dst)

Patch is smaller than IPv6 one, because IPv4 has skb_rtable() helper.

Instead of (struct rt6_info *)dst casts, we can use :

 #define dst_rt6_info(_ptr) \

Some places needed missing const qualifiers :

ip6_confirm_neigh(), ipv6_anycast_destination(),
ipv6_unicast_destination(), has_gateway()

v2: added missing parts (David Ahern)

To be able to constify instances of struct ctl_tables it is necessary to
remove ways through which non-const versions are exposed from the
sysctl core.
One of these is the ctl_table_arg member of struct ctl_table_header.

Constify this reference as a prerequisite for the full constification of
struct ctl_table instances.
No functional change.

- Use for_each_netdev_dump() to no longer rely
  on net->dev_index_head hash table.

- No longer care of net->dev_base_seq

- Fix return value at the end of a dump,
  so that NLMSG_DONE can be appended to current skb,
  saving one recvmsg() system call.

- No longer grab RTNL, RCU protection is enough,
  afer adding one READ_ONCE(mdev->input_enabled)
  in mpls_netconf_fill_devconf()

Add a "scope" parameter to ip_route_output() so that callers don't have
to override the tos parameter with the RTO_ONLINK flag if they want a
local scope.

This will allow converting flowi4_tos to dscp_t in the future, thus
allowing static analysers to flag invalid interactions between
"tos" (the DSCP bits) and ECN.

Only three users ask for local scope (bonding, arp and atm). The others
continue to use RT_SCOPE_UNIVERSE. While there, add a comment to warn
users about the limitations of ip_route_output().

We observed that TCP-pacing was falling back to the TCP-layer pacing
instead of utilizing sch_fq for the pacing. This causes significant
CPU-usage due to the hrtimer running on a per-TCP-connection basis.

The issue is that mpls_xmit() calls skb_orphan() and thus sets
skb->sk to NULL. Which implies that many of the goodies of TCP won't
work. Pacing falls back to TCP-layer pacing. TCP Small Queues does not
work, ...

It is safe to remove this call to skb_orphan() in mpls_xmit() as there
really is not reason for it to be there. It appears that this call to
skb_orphan comes from the very initial implementation of MPLS.

     this is what every other MODULE_AUTHOR for this company says,

  in drivers/sbus/char/openprom.c normalise a double-spaced separator;
     this is clearly copied from the copyright header,
