To clearly state the intent of copying from linear sk_buffs, _offset being a
overly long variant but interesting for the sake of saving some bytes.

<title>[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h</title>

<content type='text'>
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

With malformed packets it might be possible to overwrite internal
CMTP and CAPI data structures. This patch adds additional length
checks to prevent these kinds of remote attacks.

The bt_proto array needs to be protected by some kind of locking to
prevent a race condition between bt_sock_create and bt_sock_register.

And in addition all calls to sk_alloc need to be made GFP_ATOMIC now.

There exists no attempt do deal with the fact that a structure with
a uint32_t followed by a pointer is going to be different for 32-bit
and 64-bit userspace. Any 32-bit process trying to use it will be
failing with -EFAULT if it's lucky; suffering from having data dumped
at a random address if it's not.

<title>[NET]: move struct proto_ops to const</title>

I noticed that some of 'struct proto_ops' used in the kernel may share
a cache line used by locks or other heavily modified data. (default
linker alignement is 32 bytes, and L1_CACHE_LINE is 64 or 128 at
least)

This patch makes sure a 'struct proto_ops' can be declared as const,
so that all cpus can share all parts of it without false sharing.

This is not mandatory : a driver can still use a read/write structure
if it needs to (and eventually a __read_mostly)

I made a global stubstitute to change all existing occurences to make
them const.

This should reduce the possibility of false sharing on SMP, and
speedup some socket system calls.
