net: Automatically allocate per namespace data.

To get the full benefit of batched network namespace cleanup netowrk
device deletion needs to be performed by the generic code.  When
using register_pernet_gen_device and freeing the data in exit_net
it is impossible to delay allocation until after exit_net has called
as the device uninit methods are no longer safe.

To correct this, and to simplify working with per network namespace data
I have moved allocation and deletion of per network namespace data into
the network namespace core.  The core now frees the data only after
all of the network namespace exit routines have run.

Now it is only required to set the new fields .id and .size
in the pernet_operations structure if you want network namespace
data to be managed for you automatically.

This makes the current register_pernet_gen_device and
register_pernet_gen_subsys routines unnecessary.  For the moment
I have left them as compatibility wrappers in net_namespace.h

because they are nested one inside the other or because they are cooperating
in multiple machine networking experiments.  As the network stack control logic
does not parallelize easily batch up multiple network namespaces existing
together.

To get the full benefit of batching the virtual network devices to be
removed must be all removed in one batch.  For that purpose I have added
a loop after the last network device operations have run that batches
up all remaining network devices and deletes them.

An extra benefit is that the reorganization slightly shrinks the size
of the per network namespace data structures replaceing a work_struct
with a list_head.

In a trivial test with 4K namespaces this change reduced the cost of
a destroying 4K namespaces from 7+ minutes (at 12% cpu) to 44 seconds
(at 60% cpu).  The bulk of that 44s was spent in inet_twsk_purge.

refragmented again, skb->truesize is not re-adjusted to reflect only

skb_recycle_check() explicitly checks for linear skbs, so any recycled

USB: musb: Fix CPPI IRQs not being signaled

On tx channel abort a cppi interrupt is generated for a short time by
setting the lowest bit of the TCPPICOMPPTR register. It is then reset
immediately by clearing the bit. When the interrupt handler is run,
it does not detect an interrupt in the TCPPIMSKSR or RCPPIMSKSR
registers and thus exits early without writing the TCPPIEOIR register.
It appears that this inhibits further cppi interrupts until the handler
is called by chance, f.ex. from davinci_interrupt().

By moving the unmasking of the interrupt below the writes to
TCPPICOMPPTR, no interrupt is generated and no write to TCPPIEOIR is
necessary.

USB: musb: respect usb_request->zero in control requests

In gadget mode the answer to a control request should be followed by
a zero-length packet if the amount transferred is an exact multiple of
the endpoint's packet size and the requests has its "zero" flag set.

This patch prevents the request from being immediately removed from the
queue when a control IN transfer ends on a full packet and "zero" is set.
The next time ep0_txstate is entered, a zero-length packet is queued and
the request is removed as fifo_count is 0.
