[ Upstream commit 723b929ca0f79c0796f160c2eeda4597ee98d2b8 ]

Andrey Konovalov reported a BUG caused by the ip6mr code which is caused
because we call unregister_netdevice_many for a device that is already
being destroyed. In IPv4's ipmr that has been resolved by two commits
long time ago by introducing the "notify" parameter to the delete
function and avoiding the unregister when called from a notifier, so
let's do the same for ip6mr.

The trace from Andrey:

<title>ipmr, ip6mr: fix scheduling while atomic and a deadlock with ipmr_get_route</title>

Since the commit below the ipmr/ip6mr rtnl_unicast() code uses the portid
instead of the previous dst_pid which was copied from in_skb's portid.
Since the skb is new the portid is 0 at that point so the packets are sent
to the kernel and we get scheduling while atomic or a deadlock (depending
on where it happens) by trying to acquire rtnl two times.
Also since this is RTM_GETROUTE, it can be triggered by a normal user.

Here's the sleeping while atomic trace:

<title>ipmr, ip6mr: return lastuse relative to now</title>

When I introduced the lastuse member I made a subtle error because it was
returned as an absolute value but that is meaningless to user-space as it
doesn't allow to see how old exactly an entry is. Let's make it similar to
how the bridge returns such values and make it relative to "now" (jiffies).
This allows us to show the actual age of the entries and is much more
useful (e.g. user-space daemons can age out entries, iproute2 can display
the lastuse properly).

Currently lastuse is updated on entry creation and cache hit, but it should
also be updated on entry change. Since both on add and update the ttl array
is updated we can simply update the lastuse in ipmr_update_thresholds.

<content type='text'>
In preparation for hardware offloading of ipmr/ip6mr we need an
interface that allows to check (and later update) the age of entries.
Relying on stats alone can show activity but not actual age of the entry,
furthermore when there're tens of thousands of entries a lot of the
hardware implementations only support "hit" bits which are cleared on
read to denote that the entry was active and shouldn't be aged out,
these can then be naturally translated into age timestamp and will be
compatible with the software forwarding age. Using a lastuse entry doesn't
affect performance because the members in that cache line are written to
along with the age.
Since all new users are encouraged to use ipmr via netlink, this is
exported via the RTA_EXPIRES attribute.
Also do a minor local variable declaration style adjustment - arrange them
longest to shortest.

All inet6_netconf_notify_devconf() callers are in process context,
so we can use GFP_KERNEL allocations if we take care of not holding
a rwlock while not needed in ip6mr (we hold RTNL there)

Since (at least) commit b17a7c179dd3 ("[NET]: Do sysfs registration as
part of register_netdevice."), netdev_run_todo() deals only with
unregistration, so we don't need to do the rtnl_unlock/lock cycle to
finish registration when failing pimreg or dvmrp device creation. In
fact that opens a race condition where someone can delete the device
while rtnl is unlocked because it's fully registered. The problem gets
worse when netlink support is introduced as there are more points of entry
that can cause it and it also makes reusing that code correctly impossible.
