The debugfs commands that dump hex information are not doing these as
expected viz. "lldp get local", "nvm read", "dump debug fwdata", etc.
Use print_hex_dump() instead to hex dump and remove the print buffer
stuff from the code.

net: Add rxhash utility hash functions
v3:
There's really nothing specific about rxhash that constrains
it to be a value just for these receive path. Drop the 'rx'
part in utility functions, including skb_get_rxhash. In subsequent
patches, we can change the rxhash and l4_rxhash names also, as
well as abstracting out the interface to the hash.
Added comments about hash types per feedback.
In this version I'm omitting the changes to drivers to make the
patch set manageable. Will add those changes in followup pathes.
-----
This patch series introduce skb_set_rxhash and skb_clear_rxhash
which are called to set the rxhash (from network drivers) and
to clear the rxhash. This API should be used instead of updating
fields in the skbuff directly.

In several places 'skb->rxhash = 0' is being done to clear the
rxhash value in an skb. This does not clear l4_rxhash which could
still be set so that the rxhash wouldn't be recalculated on subsequent
call to skb_get_rxhash. This patch adds an explict function to clear
all the rxhash related information in the skb properly.
skb_clear_hash_if_not_l4 clears the rxhash only if it is not marked as
l4_rxhash.
Fixed up places where 'skb->rxhash = 0' was being called.

The neighbour code sends up an RTM_NEWNEIGH netlink notification if
the NUD state of a neighbour cache entry is changed by a timer (e.g.
from REACHABLE to STALE), even if the lladdr of the entry has not
changed.
But an administrative change to the the NUD state of a neighbour cache
entry that does not change the lladdr (e.g. via "ip -4 neigh change
... nud ...") does not trigger a netlink notification. This means
that netlink listeners will not hear about administrative NUD state
changes such as from a resolved state to PERMANENT.
This patch changes the neighbor code to generate an RTM_NEWNEIGH
message when the NUD state of an entry is changed administratively.

While investigating performance problems on small RPC workloads,
I noticed linux TCP stack was always splitting the last TSO skb
into two parts (skbs). One being a multiple of MSS, and a small one
with the Push flag. This split is done even if TCP_NODELAY is set,
or if no small packet is in flight.
Example with request/response of 4K/4K
IP A > B: . ack 68432 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6524593 6525001>
IP A > B: . 65537:68433(2896) ack 69632 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6524593 6525001>
IP A > B: P 68433:69633(1200) ack 69632 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6524593 6525001>
IP B > A: . ack 68433 win 2768 <nop,nop,timestamp 6525001 6524593>
IP B > A: . 69632:72528(2896) ack 69633 win 2768 <nop,nop,timestamp 6525001 6524593>
IP B > A: P 72528:73728(1200) ack 69633 win 2768 <nop,nop,timestamp 6525001 6524593>
IP A > B: . ack 72528 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6524593 6525001>
IP A > B: . 69633:72529(2896) ack 73728 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6524593 6525001>
IP A > B: P 72529:73729(1200) ack 73728 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6524593 6525001>
We can avoid this split by including the Nagle tests at the right place.
Note : If some NIC had trouble sending TSO packets with a partial
last segment, we would have hit the problem in GRO/forwarding workload already.
tcp_minshall_update() is moved to tcp_output.c and is updated as we might
feed a TSO packet with a partial last segment.
This patch tremendously improves performance, as the traffic now looks
like :
IP A > B: . ack 98304 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6834277 6834685>
IP A > B: P 94209:98305(4096) ack 98304 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6834277 6834685>

Indeed, the occupancy of tx skbs (IpExtOutOctets/IpOutRequests) is higher :
2099 instead of 1417, thus helping GRO to be more efficient when using FQ packet
scheduler.
Many thanks to Neal for review and ideas.
