Noel Burton-Krahn 9fe34f5d92 mrp: add periodictimer to allow retries when packets get lost
MRP doesn't implement the periodictimer in 802.1Q, so it never retries
if packets get lost.  I ran into this problem when MRP sent a MVRP
JoinIn before the interface was fully up.  The JoinIn was lost, MRP
didn't retry, and MVRP registration failed.

Tested against Juniper QFabric switches

Eric Dumazet faff57a92b net/802/mrp: fix lockdep splat
commit fb745e9a03 ("net/802/mrp: fix possible race condition when
calling mrp_pdu_queue()") introduced a lockdep splat.

app->lock is normally taken under softirq context, so disable BH to
avoid the splat.

David Ward fb745e9a03 net/802/mrp: fix possible race condition when calling mrp_pdu_queue()
(Adapted from a very similar change to net/802/garp.c by Cong Wang.)

mrp_pdu_queue() should ways be called with the applicant spin lock.
mrp_uninit_applicant() only holds the rtnl lock which is not enough;
a race is possible because mrp_rcv() is called in BH context:

	mrp_rcv()
	  |->mrp_pdu_parse_msg()
	    |->mrp_pdu_parse_vecattr()
	      |->mrp_pdu_parse_vecattr_event()
	        |-> mrp_attr_event()
	          |-> mrp_pdu_append_vecattr_event()
	            |-> mrp_pdu_queue()
