The check of the return value of sock_register() is ineffective.
"if(!err)" seems to be a typo. It is better to propagate the error code
to the callers of caif_sktinit_module(). This patch removes the check
statment and directly returns the result of sock_register().

<title>netns: make struct pernet_operations::id unsigned int</title>

<id>c7d03a00b56fc23c3a01a8353789ad257363e281</id>
<content type='text'>
Make struct pernet_operations::id unsigned.

There are 2 reasons to do so:

1)
This field is really an index into an zero based array and
thus is unsigned entity. Using negative value is out-of-bound
access by definition.

2)
On x86_64 unsigned 32-bit data which are mixed with pointers
via array indexing or offsets added or subtracted to pointers
are preffered to signed 32-bit data.

"int" being used as an array index needs to be sign-extended
to 64-bit before being used.

	void f(long *p, int i)
	{
		g(p[i]);
	}

  roughly translates to

	movsx	rsi, esi
	mov	rdi, [rsi+...]
	call 	g

MOVSX is 3 byte instruction which isn't necessary if the variable is
unsigned because x86_64 is zero extending by default.

Now, there is net_generic() function which, you guessed it right, uses
"int" as an array index:

	static inline void *net_generic(const struct net *net, int id)
	{
		...
		ptr = ng-&gt;ptr[id - 1];
		...
	}

And this function is used a lot, so those sign extensions add up.

Patch snipes ~1730 bytes on allyesconfig kernel (without all junk
messing with code generation):

	add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 70/598 up/down: 396/-2126 (-1730)

Unfortunately some functions actually grow bigger.
This is a semmingly random artefact of code generation with register
allocator being used differently. gcc decides that some variable
needs to live in new r8+ registers and every access now requires REX
prefix. Or it is shifted into r12, so [r12+0] addressing mode has to be
used which is longer than [r8]

However, overall balance is in negative direction:

	add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 70/598 up/down: 396/-2126 (-1730)
	function                                     old     new   delta

gcc points out code that is not indented the way it is
interpreted:

net/caif/cfpkt_skbuff.c: In function 'cfpkt_setlen':
net/caif/cfpkt_skbuff.c:289:4: error: statement is indented as if it were guarded by... [-Werror=misleading-indentation]
    return cfpkt_getlen(pkt);
    ^~~~~~
net/caif/cfpkt_skbuff.c:286:3: note: ...this 'else' clause, but it is not
   else
   ^~~~

It is clear from the context that not returning here would be
a bug, as we'd end up passing a negative length into a function
that takes a u16 length, so it is not missing curly braces
here, and I'm assuming that the indentation is the only part
that's wrong about it.

<id>9cd3e072b0be17446e37d7414eac8a3499e0601e</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch is a cleanup to make following patch easier to
review.

Goal is to move SOCK_ASYNC_NOSPACE and SOCK_ASYNC_WAITDATA
from (struct socket)-&gt;flags to a (struct socket_wq)-&gt;flags
to benefit from RCU protection in sock_wake_async()

To ease backports, we rename both constants.

Two new helpers, sk_set_bit(int nr, struct sock *sk)
and sk_clear_bit(int net, struct sock *sk) are added so that
following patch can change their implementation.
