As analyzed by Patrick McHardy, vlan needs to reset it's
netdev_ops pointer in it's ->init() function but this
leaves the compat method pointers stale.
Add a netdev_resync_ops() and call it from the vlan code.
Any other driver which changes ->netdev_ops after register_netdevice()
will need to call this new function after doing so too.
With help from Patrick McHardy.

A commit c1b56878fb "tc: policing requires
a rate estimator" introduced a test which invalidates previously working
configs, based on examples from iproute2: doc/actions/actions-general.
This is too rigorous: a rate estimator is needed only when police's
"avrate" option is used.

Commit 6833c043f9 introduced the phy
auto-powerdown capability. While the APD feature only works for 5761
and 5784 asic revisions, the (harmless portion of the) code was applied
to all 5705 and newer devices. However, the 5906 phy departs from the
usual design. This commit was interfering with the 5906's ability to
negotiate link against some switches. This patch corrects the problem.

Add "disable" module parameter support to ipv6.ko by specifying

Currently it is possible to do just about everything with the arp table
from user space except treat an entry like you are using it. To that end
implement and a flag NTF_USE that when set in a netwlink update request
treats the neighbour table entry like the kernel does on the output path.
This allows user space applications to share the kernel's arp cache.

Currently, modular tokenring ("tr") lacks a license and fails to load:
tr: module license 'unspecified' taints kernel.
tr: Unknown symbol proc_net_fops_create
Beacuse of this, no tokenring driver can load if it depends on modular
tr. Fix this by adding GPL module license as it is in the kernel.
With this fix, tr module loads fine and tms380 driver also loads. Well,
it does'nt work but that's a different bug.

The callers of netlink_set_err() currently pass a negative value
as parameter for the error code. However, sk->sk_err wants a
positive error value. Without this patch, skb_recv_datagram() called
by netlink_recvmsg() may return a positive value to report an error.
Another choice to fix this is to change callers to pass a positive
error value, but this seems a bit inconsistent and error prone
to me. Indeed, the callers of netlink_set_err() assumed that the
(usual) negative value for error codes was fine before this patch :).
This patch also includes some documentation in docbook format
for netlink_set_err() to avoid this sort of confusion.

The limitation to only 1500 byte mtu's limits the utility of the veth
device for testing routing. So implement implement a configurable
MTU.
For consistency I drop packets on the receive side when they are
larger than the MTU. I count those drops. And I allow
a little padding for vlan headers.
I also test the mtu when a new device is created with netlink
because that path currently bypasses the current mtu setting
code.
