6fda735005 [NETNS][IPV6] addrconf - make addrconf per namespace
All the infrastructure to propagate the network namespace information
is ready. Make use of it.

There is a special case here between the initial network namespace and
the other namespaces:

* When ipv6 is initialized at boot time (aka in the init_net), it
registers to the notifier callback. So addrconf_notify will be called
as many time as there are network devices setup on the system and the
function will add ipv6 addresses to the network devices. But the first
device which needs to have its ipv6 address setup is the loopback,
unfortunatly this is not the case. So the loopback address is setup
manually in the ipv6 init function.

* With the network namespace, this ordering problem does not appears
because notifier is already setup and active, so as soon as we
register the loopback the ipv6 address is setup and it will be the
first device.

This is the core. Declare and register the pernet subsys for
addrconf. The init callback the will create the devconf-s.

The init_net will reuse the existing statically declared confs,
so that accessing them from inside the ipv6 code will still
work.

The register_pernet_subsys() is moved above the ipv6_add_dev()
call for loopback, because this function will need the
net->devconf_dflt pointer to be already set.

f52295a9c5 [IPV6]: Unify and cleanup calls to addrconf_sysctl_register
Currently this call is (ab)used similar to devinet one - it
registers sysctls for devices and for the "default" confs, while
the "all" sysctls are registered separately. But unlike its
devinet brother, the passed inet6_device is needed.

The fix is to make a __addrconf_sysctl_register(), which registers
sysctls for all "devices" we need, including "default" and "all" :)

The original addrconf_sysctl_register() calls the introduced
function, passing the inet6_device, device name and ifindex (to
be used as procname and ctl_name) into it.

Thanks to Herbert again for pointing out, that we can shrink the
argument list to 1 :)

14878f75ab [IPV6]: Add ICMPMsgStats MIB (RFC 4293) [rev 2]
Background: RFC 4293 deprecates existing individual, named ICMP
type counters to be replaced with the ICMPMsgStatsTable. This table
includes entries for both IPv4 and IPv6, and requires counting of all
ICMP types, whether or not the machine implements the type.

These patches "remove" (but not really) the existing counters, and
replace them with the ICMPMsgStats tables for v4 and v6.
It includes the named counters in the /proc places they were, but gets the
values for them from the new tables. It also counts packets generated
from raw socket output (e.g., OutEchoes, MLD queries, RA's from
radvd, etc).

Changes:
1) create icmpmsg_statistics mib
2) create icmpv6msg_statistics mib
3) modify existing counters to use these
4) modify /proc/net/snmp to add "IcmpMsg" with all ICMP types
        listed by number for easy SNMP parsing
5) modify /proc/net/snmp printing for "Icmp" to get the named data
        from new counters.
[new to 2nd revision]
6) support per-interface ICMP stats
7) use common macro for per-device stat macros

Remove useless message. We get the right message from another

881d966b48 [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.
This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables.  The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl

were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.

vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.

At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

e9dc865340 [NET]: Make device event notification network namespace safe
Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol
stack or a pseudo device.  If a protocol stack that does not have
support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a
device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly
can get confused and do the wrong thing.

To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted
this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on
devices that are not in the initial network namespace.

As the rest of the code is made network namespace aware these
checks can be removed.
