netdevsim supports netpoll. Make sure we don't call napi_complete()
from it, since it may not be scheduled. Breno reports hitting a
warning in napi_complete_done():

WARNING: CPU: 14 PID: 104 at net/core/dev.c:6592 napi_complete_done+0x2cc/0x560
  __napi_poll+0x2d8/0x3a0
  handle_softirqs+0x1fe/0x710

This is presumably after netpoll stole the SCHED bit prematurely.

   Patchset from Cosmin Ratiu.

3) Add hardware offload configuration to XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE.

4) Refactor migration setup during cloning. This was
   done after the clone was created. Now it is done
   in the cloning function itself.
   From Chiachang Wang.

5) Validate assignment of maximal possible SEQ number.
   Prevent from setting to the maximum sequrnce number
   as this would cause for traffic drop.
   From Leon Romanovsky.

6) Prevent configuration of interface index when offload
   is used. Hardware can't handle this case.i
   From Leon Romanovsky.

7) Always use kfree_sensitive() for SA secret zeroization.
   From Zilin Guan.

Cover three recent cases:
1. missing ops locking for the lowers during netdev_sync_lower_features
2. missing locking for dev_set_promiscuity (plus netdev_ops_assert_locked
   with a comment on why/when it's needed)
3. rcu lock during team_change_rx_flags

Verified that each one triggers when the respective fix is reverted.
Not sure about the placement, but since it all relies on teaming,
added to the teaming directory.

One ugly bit is that I add NETIF_F_LRO to netdevsim; there is no way
to trigger netdev_sync_lower_features without it.

<title>netdevsim: Mark NAPI ID on skb in nsim_rcv</title>

<id>f71c549b26a33fd62f1e9c7deeba738bfc73fbfc</id>
<content type='text'>
Previously, nsim_rcv was not marking the NAPI ID on the skb, leading to
applications seeing a napi ID of 0 when using SO_INCOMING_NAPI_ID.

To add to the userland confusion, netlink appears to correctly report
the NAPI IDs for netdevsim queues but the resulting file descriptor from
a call to accept() was reporting a NAPI ID of 0.

<content type='text'>
Previously, device driver IPSec offload implementations would fall into
two categories:
1. Those that used xso.dev to determine the offload device.
2. Those that used xso.real_dev to determine the offload device.

The first category didn't work with bonding while the second did.
In a non-bonding setup the two pointers are the same.

This commit adds explicit pointers for the offload netdevice to
.xdo_dev_state_add() / .xdo_dev_state_delete() / .xdo_dev_state_free()
which eliminates the confusion and allows drivers from the first
category to work with bonding.

xso.real_dev now becomes a private pointer managed by the bonding
driver.

Don't error out on large MTU if XDP is multi-buf.
The ping test now tests ping with XDP and high MTU.
netdevsim doesn't actually run the prog (yet?) so
it doesn't matter if the prog was multi-buf..
