<content type='text'>
By moving stats update into iptunnel_xmit(), we can simplify
iptunnel_xmit() usage. With this change there is no need to
call another function (iptunnel_xmit_stats()) to update stats
in tunnel xmit code path.

Commit 5405ff6e15f40f2f ("tipc: convert node lock to rwlock")
introduced a bug to the node reference counter handling. When a
message is successfully sent in the function tipc_node_xmit(),
we return directly after releasing the node lock, instead of
continuing and decrementing the node reference counter as we
should do.

This commit fixes this bug.

<content type='text'>
The memory barrier in the helper wq_has_sleeper is needed by just
about every user of waitqueue_active.  This patch generalises it
by making it take a wait_queue_head_t directly.  The existing
helper is renamed to skwq_has_sleeper.

When expanding buffer headroom over udp tunnel with pskb_expand_head(),
it's unfortunate that we don't check its return value. As a result, if
the function returns an error code due to the lack of memory, it may
cause unpredictable consequence as we unconditionally consider that
it's always successful.

<title>tipc: avoid packets leaking on socket receive queue</title>

Even if we drain receive queue thoroughly in tipc_release() after tipc
socket is removed from rhashtable, it is possible that some packets
are in flight because some CPU runs receiver and did rhashtable lookup
before we removed socket. They will achieve receive queue, but nobody
delete them at all. To avoid this leak, we register a private socket
destructor to purge receive queue, meaning releasing packets pending
on receive queue will be delayed until the last reference of tipc
socket will be released.

<title>tipc: correct settings of broadcast link state</title>

<id>9a65083827da0da5fadf9dea5bca25192073b112</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 5266698661401afc5e ("tipc: let broadcast packet
reception use new link receive function") the broadcast send
link state was meant to always be set to LINK_ESTABLISHED, since
we don't need this link to follow the regular link FSM rules. It
was also the intention that this state anyway shouldn't impact
the run-time working state of the link, since the latter in
reality is controlled by the number of registered peers.

We have now discovered that this assumption is not quite correct.
If the broadcast link is reset because of too many retransmissions,
its state will inadvertently go to LINK_RESETTING, and never go
back to LINK_ESTABLISHED, because the LINK_FAILURE event was not
anticipated. This will work well once, but if it happens a second
time, the reset on a link in LINK_RESETTING has has no effect, and
neither the broadcast link nor the unicast links will go down as
they should.

Furthermore, it is confusing that the management tool shows that
this link is in UP state when that obviously isn't the case.

We now ensure that this state strictly follows the true working
state of the link. The state is set to LINK_ESTABLISHED when
the number of peers is non-zero, and to LINK_RESET otherwise.

We now root out the last traces of this practice.

We move the definition of struct tipc_link from link.h to link.c in
order to minimize its exposure to the rest of the code.

When needed, we define new functions to make it possible for external
entities to access and set data in the link.

Apart from the above, there are no functional changes.

In our effort to have less code and include dependencies between
entities such as node, link and bearer, we try to narrow down
the exposed interface towards the node as much as possible.

In this commit, we move the definition of struct tipc_node, along
with many of its associated function declarations, from node.h to
node.c. We also move some function definitions from link.c and
name_distr.c to node.c, since they access fields in struct tipc_node
that should not be externally visible. The moved functions are renamed
according to new location, and made static whenever possible.

There are no functional changes in this commit.
