I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

        list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

        hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

 - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
 - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
 - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
 was modified to use 'obj-&gt;member' instead.
 - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
 properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

The Ethernet II wrapper is only used by IPX protocol, may have once
been used by Appletalk but not currently. Therefore it makes sense to
move it to the IPX dust bin and drop the exports.

Build tested only.

We already unconditionally dereference 'sk' via lock_sock(sk) earlier

We are going to delete the Token ring support.  This removes any
special processing in the core networking for token ring, (aside
from net/tr.c itself), leaving the drivers and remaining tokenring
support present but inert.

The mass removal of the drivers and net/tr.c will be in a separate
commit, so that the history of these files that we still care
about won't have the giant deletion tied into their history.

This results in code with less boiler plate that is a bit easier

Additionally stops us from using compatibility code in the sysctl

This makes it clearer which sysctls are relative to your current network
namespace.

This makes it a little less error prone by not exposing sysctls for the
initial network namespace in other namespaces.

This is the same way we handle all of our other network interfaces to
userspace and I can't honestly remember why we didn't do this for
sysctls right from the start.

These files are non modular, but need to export symbols using
the macros now living in export.h -- call out the include so
that things won't break when we remove the implicit presence
of module.h from everywhere.

Commit b0d0d915d1d1a0 (remove the BKL) added a regression, because
sock_put() can free memory while we are going to use it later.

Fix is to delay sock_put() _after_ release_sock().

This replaces all instances of lock_kernel in the
IPX code with lock_sock. As far as I can tell, this
is safe to do, because there is no global state
that needs to be locked in IPX, and the code does
not recursively take the lock or sleep indefinitely
while holding it.

Compile-tested only.
