commit c7ac8679bec9397afe8918f788cbcef88c38da54 upstream.

The message size allocated for rtnl ifinfo dumps was limited to
a single page.  This is not enough for additional interface info
available with devices that support SR-IOV and caused a bug in
which VF info would not be displayed if more than approximately
40 VFs were created per interface.

Implement a new function pointer for the rtnl_register service that will
calculate the amount of data required for the ifinfo dump and allocate
enough data to satisfy the request.

Gergely Kalman reported crashes in check_peer_redir().

It appears commit f39925dbde778 (ipv4: Cache learned redirect
information in inetpeer.) added a race, leading to possible NULL ptr
dereference.

Since we can now change dst neighbour, we should make sure a reader can
safely use a neighbour.

Add RCU protection to dst neighbour, and make sure check_peer_redir()
can be called safely by different cpus in parallel.

As neighbours are already freed after one RCU grace period, this patch
should not add typical RCU penalty (cache cold effects)

Many thanks to Gergely for providing a pretty report pointing to the
bug.

<title>RDMA: Check for NULL mode in .devnode methods</title>

Commits 71c29bd5c235 ("IB/uverbs: Add devnode method to set path/mode")
and c3af0980ce01 ("IB: Add devnode methods to cm_class and umad_class")
added devnode methods that set the mode.

However, these methods don't check for a NULL mode, and so we get a
crash when unloading modules because devtmpfs_delete_node() calls
device_get_devnode() with mode == NULL.

Add the missing checks.

Add callbacks and data types for statistics export of all current
devices/ids.  The schema for RDMA CM is a series of netlink messages.
Each one contains an rdma_cm_stat struct.  Additionally, two netlink
attributes are created for the addresses for each message (if
applicable).

Their types used are:
RDMA_NL_RDMA_CM_ATTR_SRC_ADDR (The source address for this ID)
RDMA_NL_RDMA_CM_ATTR_DST_ADDR (The destination address for this ID)
sockaddr_* structs are encapsulated within these attributes.

In other words, every transaction contains a series of messages like:

-------message 1-------
struct rdma_cm_id_stats {
       __u32 qp_num;
       __u32 bound_dev_if;
       __u32 port_space;
       __s32 pid;
       __u8 cm_state;
       __u8 node_type;
       __u8 port_num;
       __u8 reserved;
}
RDMA_NL_RDMA_CM_ATTR_SRC_ADDR attribute - contains the source address
RDMA_NL_RDMA_CM_ATTR_DST_ADDR attribute - contains the destination address
-------end 1-------
-------message 2-------
struct rdma_cm_id_stats

<id>b26f9b9949013fec31b23c426fc463164ae08891</id>
<content type='text'>
The RDMA CM currently infers the QP type from the port space selected
by the user.  In the future (eg with RDMA_PS_IB or XRC), there may not
be a 1-1 correspondence between port space and QP type.  For netlink
export of RDMA CM state, we want to export the QP type to userspace,
so it is cleaner to explicitly associate a QP type to an ID.

Modify rdma_create_id() to allow the user to specify the QP type, and
use it to make our selections of datagram versus connected mode.
