The ip6_fib_timer gc timer is dynamically allocated and initialized in
the ip6 fib init function. There are no more references to a static
global variable. That will allow to make multiple instance of the
garbage collecting timer and make them per namespace.

The fib tables are now relative to the network namespace. When the
garbage collector timer expires, we must have a network namespace
parameter in order to retrieve the tables. For now this is the
init_net, but we should be able to have a timer per namespace and use
the timer callback parameter to pass the network namespace from the
expired timer.
The timer callback, fib6_run_gc, is actually used to be called
synchronously by some functions and asynchronously when the timer
expires.
When the timer expires, the delay specified for fib6_run_gc parameter
is always zero. So, I changed fib6_run_gc to not be a timer callback
but a function called by the timer callback and I added a timer
callback where its work is just to retrieve from the data arg of the
timer the network namespace and call fib6_run_gc with zero expiring
time and the network namespace parameters. That makes the code cleaner
for the fib6_run_gc callers.

The fib table for ipv6 are moved to the network namespace structure.
All references to them are made relatively to the network namespace.
All external calls to the ip6_fib functions taking the network
namespace parameter are made using the init_net variable, so the

There are some place, that calculate the ARP header length. These
calculations are correct, but
a) some operate with "magic" constants,
b) enlarge the code length (sometimes at the cost of coding style),
c) are not informative from the first glance.

Even though I thought about it a lot and had also tested it, some
of my recent changes in the key code broke replacing keys, making
the kernel oops because a key is removed from a list while not on
it.
This patch fixes that using the list as an indication whether or
not the key is on it (an empty list means it's not on any list.)
Also, this patch fixes hw accel enabling, the check for not doing
hw accel when the interface is down was lost and is restored by
this.
Additionally, move adding the key to the list into the function
__ieee80211_key_replace() for more consistency.

In order to RCU-ify sta_info, we need to be able to allocate
a key without linking it to an sdata/sta structure (because
allocation cannot be done in an rcu critical section). This
patch splits up ieee80211_key_alloc() and updates all users
appropriately.
While at it, this patch fixes a number of race conditions
such as finally making key replacement atomic, unfortunately
at the expense of more complex code.
Note that this patch documents /existing/ bugs with sta info
and key interaction, there is currently a race condition
when a sta info is freed without holding the RTNL. This will
finally be fixed by a followup patch.

Drivers should be allowed to simply get a complete new beacon when

now get an already updated beacon.
