<title>inetpeer: get rid of ip_id_count</title>

[ 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.

Commit 10ddceb22ba (ip_tunnel:multicast process cause panic due
to skb-&gt;_skb_refdst NULL pointer) removed dst-drop call from
ip-tunnel-recv.

Following commit reintroduce dst-drop and fix the original bug by
checking loopback packet before releasing dst.

when ip_tunnel process multicast packets, it may check if the packet is looped
back packet though 'rt_is_output_route(skb_rtable(skb))' in ip_tunnel_rcv(),
but before that , skb-&gt;_skb_refdst has been dropped in iptunnel_pull_header(),

In several places 'skb-&gt;rxhash = 0' is being done to clear the
rxhash value in an skb.  This does not clear l4_rxhash which could
still be set so that the rxhash wouldn't be recalculated on subsequent
call to skb_get_rxhash.  This patch adds an explict function to clear
all the rxhash related information in the skb properly.

skb_clear_hash_if_not_l4 clears the rxhash only if it is not marked as
l4_rxhash.

Fixed up places where 'skb-&gt;rxhash = 0' was being called.

Git commit 0e6fbc5b ("ip_tunnels: extend iptunnel_xmit()")
moved the IP header installation to iptunnel_xmit() and
changed skb_push() to __skb_push(). This makes possible
bugs hard to track down, so change it back to skb_push().
