[ Upstream commit 73f156a6e8c1074ac6327e0abd1169e95eb66463 ]

Ideally, we would need to generate IP ID using a per destination IP
generator.

linux kernels used inet_peer cache for this purpose, but this had a huge
cost on servers disabling MTU discovery.

1) each inet_peer struct consumes 192 bytes

2) inetpeer cache uses a binary tree of inet_peer structs,
   with a nominal size of ~66000 elements under load.

3) lookups in this tree are hitting a lot of cache lines, as tree depth
   is about 20.

4) If server deals with many tcp flows, we have a high probability of
   not finding the inet_peer, allocating a fresh one, inserting it in
   the tree with same initial ip_id_count, (cf secure_ip_id())

5) We garbage collect inet_peer aggressively.

IP ID generation do not have to be 'perfect'

Goal is trying to avoid duplicates in a short period of time,
so that reassembly units have a chance to complete reassembly of
fragments belonging to one message before receiving other fragments
with a recycled ID.

We simply use an array of generators, and a Jenkin hash using the dst IP
as a key.

ipv6_select_ident() is put back into net/ipv6/ip6_output.c where it
belongs (it is only used from this file)

secure_ip_id() and secure_ipv6_id() no longer are needed.

Rename ip_select_ident_more() to ip_select_ident_segs() to avoid
unnecessary decrement/increment of the number of segments.

<title>net: always inline net_secret_init</title>

Currently net_secret_init does not get inlined, so we always have a call
to net_secret_init even in the fast path.

Let's specify net_secret_init as __always_inline so we have the nop in
the fast-path without the call to net_secret_init and the unlikely path
at the epilogue of the function.

jump_labels handle the inlining correctly.

net_secret() is only used when CONFIG_IPV6 or CONFIG_INET are selected.

Building a defconfig with both of these symbols unselected (Using the ARM
at91sam9rl_defconfig, for example) leads to the following build warning:

$ make at91sam9rl_defconfig
#
# configuration written to .config
#

$ make net/core/secure_seq.o
scripts/kconfig/conf --silentoldconfig Kconfig
  CHK     include/config/kernel.release
  CHK     include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
  CHK     include/generated/utsrelease.h
make[1]: `include/generated/mach-types.h' is up to date.
  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
  CC      net/core/secure_seq.o
net/core/secure_seq.c:17:13: warning: 'net_secret_init' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]

Fix this warning by protecting the definition of net_secret() with these
symbols.

A host might need net_secret[] and never open a single socket.

Problem added in commit aebda156a570782
("net: defer net_secret[] initialization")

Based on prior patch from Hannes Frederic Sowa.

Instead of feeding net_secret[] at boot time, defer the init
at the point first socket is created.

This permits some platforms to use better entropy sources than
the ones available at boot time.
