While reading sysctl_devconf_inherit_init_net, it can be changed
concurrently.  Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its readers.

<content type='text'>
Netdev reference helpers have a dev_ prefix for historic
reasons. Renaming the old helpers would be too much churn
but we can rename the tracking ones which are relatively
recent and should be the default for new code.

Rename:
 dev_hold_track()    -&gt; netdev_hold()
 dev_put_track()     -&gt; netdev_put()
 dev_replace_track() -&gt; netdev_ref_replace()

<title>net: wrap the wireless pointers in struct net_device in an ifdef</title>

<content type='text'>
Most protocol-specific pointers in struct net_device are under
a respective ifdef. Wireless is the notable exception. Since
there's a sizable number of custom-built kernels for datacenter
workloads which don't build wireless it seems reasonable to
ifdefy those pointers as well.

While at it move IPv4 and IPv6 pointers up, those are special
for obvious reasons.

When calling dev_fill_forward_path on a pppoe device, the provided destination
address is invalid. In order for the bridge fdb lookup to succeed, the pppoe
code needs to update ctx-&gt;daddr to the correct value.
Fix this by storing the address inside struct net_device_path_ctx

A cpu can observe sd-&gt;defer_count reaching 128,
and call smp_call_function_single_async()

Problem is that the remote CPU can clear sd-&gt;defer_count
before the IPI is run/acknowledged.

Other cpus can queue more packets and also decide
to call smp_call_function_single_async() while the pending
IPI was not yet delivered.

This is a common issue with smp_call_function_single_async().
Callers must ensure correct synchronization and serialization.

I triggered this issue while experimenting smaller threshold.
Performing the call to smp_call_function_single_async()
under sd-&gt;defer_lock protection did not solve the problem.

Commit 5a18ceca6350 ("smp: Allow smp_call_function_single_async()
to insert locked csd") replaced an informative WARN_ON_ONCE()
with a return of -EBUSY, which is often ignored.
Test of CSD_FLAG_LOCK presence is racy anyway.
