Avoid double free in tun_free_netdev() by moving the
dev-&gt;tstats and tun-&gt;security allocs to a new ndo_init routine
(tun_net_init()) that will be called by register_netdevice().
ndo_init is paired with the desctructor (tun_free_netdev()),
so if there's an error in register_netdevice() the destructor
will handle the frees.

As stated in the bonding doc, trans_start must be set manually for drivers
using NETIF_F_LLTX:
 Drivers that use NETIF_F_LLTX flag must also update
 netdev_queue-&gt;trans_start. If they do not, then the ARP monitor will
 immediately fail any slaves using that driver, and those slaves will stay
 down.

In order to support more coalesce parameters through netlink,
add two new parameter kernel_coal and extack for .set_coalesce
and .get_coalesce, then some extra info can return to user with
the netlink API.

Variable 'ret' is set to zero but this value is never read as it is
overwritten with a new value later on, hence it is a redundant
assignment and can be removed.

Cleans up the following clang-analyzer warning:

We want to change the current ndo_xdp_xmit drop semantics because it will
allow us to implement better queue overflow handling. This is working
towards the larger goal of a XDP TX queue-hook. Move XDP_REDIRECT error
path handling from each XDP ethernet driver to devmap code. According to
the new APIs, the driver running the ndo_xdp_xmit pointer, will break tx
loop whenever the hw reports a tx error and it will just return to devmap
caller the number of successfully transmitted frames. It will be devmap
responsibility to free dropped frames.

Move each XDP ndo_xdp_xmit capable driver to the new APIs:

- veth
- virtio-net
- mvneta
- mvpp2
- socionext
- amazon ena
- bnxt
- freescale (dpaa2, dpaa)
- xen-frontend
- qede
- ice
- igb
- ixgbe
- i40e
- mlx5
- ti (cpsw, cpsw-new)

// eth_commit_mac_addr_change()
memcpy(dev-&gt;dev_addr, addr-&gt;sa_data, ETH_ALEN);
				// dev_ifsioc_locked()
				memcpy(ifr-&gt;ifr_hwaddr.sa_data,
					dev-&gt;dev_addr,...);

Close this race condition by guarding them with a RW semaphore,
like netdev_get_name(). We can not use seqlock here as it does not
allow blocking. The writers already take RTNL anyway, so this does
not affect the slow path. To avoid bothering existing
dev_set_mac_address() callers in drivers, introduce a new wrapper
just for user-facing callers on ioctl and rtnetlink paths.

Note, bonding also changes slave mac addresses but that requires
a separate patch due to the complexity of bonding code.

dev_ifsioc_locked() is called with only RCU read lock, so when
there is a parallel writer changing the mac address, it could
get a partially updated mac address, as shown below:
