I noticed sysctl_local_port_range[] and its associated seqlock
sysctl_local_port_range_lock were on separate cache lines.
Moreover, sysctl_local_port_range[] was close to unrelated
variables, highly modified, leading to cache misses.
Moving these two variables in a structure can help data
locality and moving this structure to read_mostly section
helps sharing of this data among cpus.
Cleanup of extern declarations (moved in include file where
they belong), and use of inet_get_local_port_range()
accessor instead of direct access to ports values.

Current UDP port allocation is suboptimal.
We select the shortest chain to chose a port (out of 512)
that will hash in this shortest chain.
First, it can lead to give not so ramdom ports and ease
give attackers more opportunities to break the system.
Second, it can consume a lot of CPU to scan all table
in order to find the shortest chain.
Third, in some pathological cases we can fail to find
a free port even if they are plenty of them.
This patch zap the search for a short chain and only
use one random seed. Problem of getting long chains
should be addressed in another way, since we can
obtain long chains with non random ports.
Based on a report and patch from Vitaly Mayatskikh

After the last change of requeuing there is no info about such
incidents in tc stats. This patch updates the counter, but we should
consider this should differ from previous stats because of additional
checks preventing to repeat this. On the other hand, previous stats
didn't include requeuing of gso_segmented skbs.

While looking for some common code I came across difference
in checksum calculation between tcp_v6_send_(reset|ack) I
couldn't explain. I checked both v4 and v6 and found out that
both seem to have the same "feature". I couldn't find anything
in rfc nor anywhere else which would state that md5 option
should be ignored like it was in case of reset so I came to
a conclusion that this is probably a genuine bug. I suspect
that addition of md5 just was fooled by the excessive
copy-paste code in those functions and the reset part was
never tested well enough to find out the problem.

Lots of extensions are completely family-independent, so squash some code.

By passing in the family through which extensions were invoked, a bit
of data space can be reclaimed. The "family" member will be added to
the parameter structures and the check functions be adjusted.

The function signatures for Xtables extensions have grown over time.
It involves a lot of typing/replication, and also a bit of stack space
even if they are not used. Realize an NFWS2008 idea and pack them into
structs. The skb remains outside of the struct so gcc can continue to
apply its optimizations.
This patch does this for match extensions' match functions.
A few ambiguities have also been addressed. The "offset" parameter for
example has been renamed to "fragoff" (there are so many different
offsets already) and "protoff" to "thoff" (there is more than just one
protocol here, so clarify).

The function signatures will be changed to match those of Xtables, and
the datalen argument will be gone. ebt_among unfortunately relies on
it, so we need to obtain it somehow.
