On the output paths in particular, we have to sometimes deal with two
socket contexts.  First, and usually skb->sk, is the local socket that
generated the frame.

And second, is potentially the socket used to control a tunneling
socket, such as one the encapsulates using UDP.

We do not want to disassociate skb->sk when encapsulating in order
to fix this, because that would break socket memory accounting.

The most extreme case where this can cause huge problems is an
AF_PACKET socket transmitting over a vxlan device.  We hit code
paths doing checks that assume they are dealing with an ipv4
socket, but are actually operating upon the AF_PACKET one.

The ipv4 code uses a mixture of coding styles. In some instances check
for NULL pointer is done as x == NULL and sometimes as !x. !x is
preferred according to checkpatch and this patch makes the code
consistent by adopting the latter form.

This patch add an IPsec protocol multiplexer. With this
it is possible to add alternative protocol handlers as
needed for IPsec virtual tunnel interfaces.

With the routing cache removal we lost the "noref" code paths on
input, and this can kill some routing workloads.

Reinstate the noref path when we hit a cached route in the FIB
nexthops.

The "noref" argument to ip_route_input_common() is now always ignored
because we do not cache routes, and in that case we must always grab
a reference to the resulting 'dst'.

This reverts commit c074da2810c118b3812f32d6754bd9ead2f169e7.

This change has several unwanted side effects:

1) Sockets will cache the DST_NOCACHE route in sk->sk_rx_dst and we'll
   thus never create a real cached route.

2) All TCP traffic will use DST_NOCACHE and never use the routing
   cache at all.

DDOS synflood attacks hit badly IP route cache.

On typical machines, this cache is allowed to hold up to 8 Millions dst
entries, 256 bytes for each, for a total of 2GB of memory.

rt_garbage_collect() triggers and tries to cleanup things.

Eventually route cache is disabled but machine is under fire and might
OOM and crash.

This patch exploits the new TCP early demux, to set a nocache
boolean in case incoming TCP frame is for a not yet ESTABLISHED or
TIMEWAIT socket.

This 'nocache' boolean is then used in case dst entry is not found in
route cache, to create an unhashed dst entry (DST_NOCACHE)

SYN-cookie-ACK sent use a similar mechanism (ipv4: tcp: dont cache
output dst for syncookies), so after this patch, a machine is able to
absorb a DDOS synflood attack without polluting its IP route cache.

Use ip_route_input_noref() in ip fast path, to avoid two atomic ops per
incoming packet.

Note: loopback is excluded from this optimization in ip_rcv_finish()
