Ok, this one just renames some stuff to have a better namespace and to
dissassociate it from TCP:

struct open_request  -&gt; struct request_sock
tcp_openreq_alloc    -&gt; reqsk_alloc
tcp_openreq_free     -&gt; reqsk_free
tcp_openreq_fastfree -&gt; __reqsk_free

With this most of the infrastructure closely resembles a struct
sock methods subset.

<title>[NET] Generalise TCP's struct open_request minisock infrastructure</title>

Kept this first changeset minimal, without changing existing names to
ease peer review.

Basicaly tcp_openreq_alloc now receives the or_calltable, that in turn
has two new members:

-&gt;slab, that replaces tcp_openreq_cachep
-&gt;obj_size, to inform the size of the openreq descendant for
  a specific protocol

The protocol specific fields in struct open_request were moved to a
class hierarchy, with the things that are common to all connection
oriented PF_INET protocols in struct inet_request_sock, the TCP ones
in tcp_request_sock, that is an inet_request_sock, that is an
open_request.

I.e. this uses the same approach used for the struct sock class
hierarchy, with sk_prot indicating if the protocol wants to use the
open_request infrastructure by filling in sk_prot-&gt;rsk_prot with an
or_calltable.

Results? Performance is improved and TCP v4 now uses only 64 bytes per
open request minisock, down from 96 without this patch :-)

Next changeset will rename some of the structs, fields and functions
mentioned above, struct or_calltable is way unclear, better name it
struct request_sock_ops, s/struct open_request/struct request_sock/g,
etc.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
