Now genl_register_family() is the only thing (other than the
users themselves, perhaps, but I didn't find any doing that)
writing to the family struct.

In all families that I found, genl_register_family() is only
called from __init functions (some indirectly, in which case
I've add __init annotations to clarifly things), so all can
actually be marked __ro_after_init.

This protects the data structure from accidental corruption.

Instead of providing macros/inline functions to initialize
the families, make all users initialize them statically and
get rid of the macros.

This reduces the kernel code size by about 1.6k on x86-64
(with allyesconfig).

<title>genetlink: no longer support using static family IDs</title>

Static family IDs have never really been used, the only
use case was the workaround I introduced for those users
that assumed their family ID was also their multicast
group ID.

Additionally, because static family IDs would never be
reserved by the generic netlink code, using a relatively
low ID would only work for built-in families that can be
registered immediately after generic netlink is started,
which is basically only the control family (apart from
the workaround code, which I also had to add code for so
it would reserve those IDs)

Thus, anything other than GENL_ID_GENERATE is flawed and
luckily not used except in the cases I mentioned. Move
those workarounds into a few lines of code, and then get
rid of GENL_ID_GENERATE entirely, making it more robust.

When team is in bridge and LACP is utilized, LACPDU packets are pushed
to userspace using raw socket and there they are processed. However,
since 8626c56c8279b, LACPDU skbs are dropped by bridge rx_handler so
they never reach packet handlers in rx path. Fix this by explicity treat
LACPDUs to be pushed to exact delivery in team rx_handler.

L2 upper device needs to propagate neigh_construct/destroy calls down to
lower devices. Do this by defining default ndo functions and use them in
team, bond, bridge and vlan.

Both dev_uc_sync_multiple() and dev_mc_sync_multiple() require the
source device to be locked by netif_addr_lock_bh(), but this is missing
in team's enslave function, so add it.

This fixes the following lockdep warning:

Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:

        CPU0                    CPU1
        ----                    ----
   lock(_xmit_ETHER/1);

                                lock(&amp;(&amp;mc-&gt;mca_lock)-&gt;rlock);

Instead of using a single bit (__QDISC___STATE_RUNNING)
in sch-&gt;__state, use a seqcount.

This adds lockdep support, but more importantly it will allow us
to sample qdisc/class statistics without having to grab qdisc root lock.

<title>team: don't call netdev_change_features under team-&gt;lock</title>

<content type='text'>
The team_device_event() notifier calls team_compute_features() to fix
vlan_features under team-&gt;lock to protect team-&gt;port_list. The problem is
that subsequent __team_compute_features() calls netdev_change_features()
to propagate vlan_features to upper vlan devices while team-&gt;lock is still
taken. This can lead to deadlock when NETIF_F_LRO is modified on lower
devices or team device itself.

Example:
The team0 as active backup with eth0 and eth1 NICs. Both eth0 &amp; eth1 are
LRO capable and LRO is enabled. Thus LRO is also enabled on team0.

The command 'ethtool -K team0 lro off' now hangs due to this deadlock:

dev_ethtool()
-&gt; ethtool_set_features()
 -&gt; __netdev_update_features(team)
  -&gt; netdev_sync_lower_features()
   -&gt; netdev_update_features(lower_1)
    -&gt; __netdev_update_features(lower_1)
    -&gt; netdev_features_change(lower_1)
     -&gt; call_netdevice_notifiers(...)
      -&gt; team_device_event(lower_1)
       -&gt; team_compute_features(team) [TAKES team-&gt;lock]
        -&gt; netdev_change_features(team)
         -&gt; __netdev_update_features(team)
          -&gt; netdev_sync_lower_features()
           -&gt; netdev_update_features(lower_2)
            -&gt; __netdev_update_features(lower_2)

              -&gt; team_device_event(lower_2)
               -&gt; team_compute_features(team) [DEADLOCK]

The bug is present in team from the beginning but it appeared after the commit
fd867d5 (net/core: generic support for disabling netdev features down stack)
that adds synchronization of features with lower devices.
