This fix prevents link flopping and name table inconsistency problems arising
when a node is assigned a different <Z.C.N> value than it used previously.
(Changing the <Z.C.N> value causes other nodes to have two link endpoints
sending to the same MAC address using two different destination <Z.C.N> values,
requiring the receiving node to filter out the unwanted messages.)

The node_map struct can be quite large (516 bytes) and allocating two of
them on the stack is not a good idea since we might only have a 4K stack
to start with.

This patch contains the following possible cleanups:
- make needlessly global code static
- #if 0 the following unused global functions:
- name_table.c: tipc_nametbl_print()
- name_table.c: tipc_nametbl_dump()
- net.c: tipc_net_next_node()

With reference to latest discussions on linux-kernel with respect to
inline here is a patch for tipc to remove all inlines as used in
the .c files. See also chapter 14 in Documentation/CodingStyle.
Before:
text data bss dec hex filename
102990 5292 1752 110034 1add2 tipc.o
Now:
text data bss dec hex filename
101190 5292 1752 108234 1a6ca tipc.o
This is a nice text size reduction which will improve icache usage.
In some cases bigger (> 4 lines) functions where declared inline
and used in many places, they are most probarly no longer inlined by gcc
resulting in the size reduction.
There are several one liners that no longer are declared inline, but gcc
should inline these just fine without the inline hint.
With this patch applied one warning is added about an unused static
function - that was hidded by utilising inline before.
The function in question were kept so this patch is solely a
inline removal patch.

Tried to run the new tipc stack through sparse.
Following patch fixes all cases where 0 was used
as replacement of NULL.
Use NULL to document this is a pointer and to silence sparse.
This brough sparse warning count down with 127 to 24 warnings.

Added macros for min/default/max link priority in tipc_config.h.
Also renamed TIPC_NUM_LINK_PRI to TIPC_MEDIA_LINK_PRI since that
is a more accurate description of what it is used for.

Increasing the module ref count at registration will block the module from
ever being unloaded. In fact, genetlink should not care about the owner at
all. This patch removes the owner field from the struct registered with
genetlink.
