This provides safety against negative optlen at the type
level instead of depending upon (sometimes non-trivial)
checks against this sprinkled all over the the place, in
each and every implementation.

Based upon work done by Arjan van de Ven and feedback
from Linus Torvalds.

Change all the code that deals directly with ICMPv6 type and code
values to use u8 instead of a signed int as that's the actual data
type.

<title>udp: introduce struct udp_table and multiple spinlocks</title>

<content type='text'>
UDP sockets are hashed in a 128 slots hash table.

This hash table is protected by *one* rwlock.

This rwlock is readlocked each time an incoming UDP message is handled.

This rwlock is writelocked each time a socket must be inserted in
hash table (bind time), or deleted from this table (close time)

This is not scalable on SMP machines :

1) Even in read mode, lock() and unlock() are atomic operations and
 must dirty a contended cache line, shared by all cpus.

2) A writer might be starved if many readers are 'in flight'. This can
 happen on a machine with some NIC receiving many UDP messages. User
 process can be delayed a long time at socket creation/dismantle time.

This patch prepares RCU migration, by introducing 'struct udp_table
and struct udp_hslot', and using one spinlock per chain, to reduce
contention on central rwlock.

Introducing one spinlock per chain reduces latencies, for port
randomization on heavily loaded UDP servers. This also speedup
bindings to specific ports.

udp_lib_unhash() was uninlined, becoming to big.

Some cleanups were done to ease review of following patch
(RCUification of UDP Unicast lookups)

After this we have only udp_lib_get_port to get the port and two 
stubs for ipv4 and ipv6. No difference in udp and udplite except
for initialized h.udp_hash member.

I tried to find a graceful way to drop the only difference between
udp_v4_get_port and udp_v6_get_port (i.e. the rcv_saddr comparison 
routine), but adding one more callback on the struct proto didn't 
appear such :( Maybe later.

fc038410b4b1643766f8033f4940bcdb1dace633

There are still some correctness issues recently
discovered which do not have a known fix that doesn't
involve doing a full hash table scan on port bind.

So revert for now.

__udp_lib_port_inuse() cannot make direct references to
inet_sk(sk)-&gt;rcv_saddr as that is ipv4 specific state and
this code is used by ipv6 too.

Use an operations vector to solve this, and this also paves
the way for ipv6 support for non-wild saddr hashing in UDP.
