Neil Horman f5c38208d3 netprio_cgroup: don't allocate prio table when a device is registered
So we delay the allocation till the priority is set through cgroup,
and this makes skb_update_priority() faster when it's not set.

This also eliminates an off-by-one bug similar with the one fixed
in the previous patch.

# mount -t cgroup xxx /mnt

We got weired output, because we exceeded the boundary of the array.
We may even crash the kernel..

Neil Horman 5962b35c1d netprio_cgroup: Fix obo in get_prioidx
It was recently pointed out to me that the get_prioidx function sets a bit in
the prioidx map prior to checking to see if the index being set is out of
bounds.  This patch corrects that, avoiding the possiblity of us writing beyond
the end of the array

John Fastabend 0221cd5154 Revert "net: netprio_cgroup: make net_prio_subsys static"
This reverts commit 865d9f9f74.

This commit breaks the build with CONFIG_NETPRIO_CGROUP=y so
revert it. It does build as a module though. The SUBSYS macro
in the cgroup core code automatically defines a subsys structure
as extern. Long term we should fix the macro. And I need to
fully build test things.

Tested with CONFIG_NETPRIO_CGROUP={y|m|n} with and without
CONFIG_CGROUPS defined.

John Fastabend 865d9f9f74 net: netprio_cgroup: make net_prio_subsys static
net_prio_subsys can be made static this removes the sparse
warning it was throwing.

Eric Dumazet 2cfa5a0471 net: treewide use of RCU_INIT_POINTER
rcu_assign_pointer(ptr, NULL) can be safely replaced by
RCU_INIT_POINTER(ptr, NULL)

(old rcu_assign_pointer() macro was testing the NULL value and could
omit the smp_wmb(), but this had to be removed because of compiler
warnings)

Neil Horman 5bc1421e34 net: add network priority cgroup infrastructure (v4)
This patch adds in the infrastructure code to create the network priority
cgroup.  The cgroup, in addition to the standard processes file creates two
control files:

1) prioidx - This is a read-only file that exports the index of this cgroup.
This is a value that is both arbitrary and unique to a cgroup in this subsystem,
and is used to index the per-device priority map

2) priomap - This is a writeable file.  On read it reports a table of 2-tuples
<name:priority> where name is the name of a network interface and priority is
indicates the priority assigned to frames egresessing on the named interface and
originating from a pid in this cgroup

This cgroup allows for skb priority to be set prior to a root qdisc getting
selected. This is benenficial for DCB enabled systems, in that it allows for any
application to use dcb configured priorities so without application modification
