5274cd68d7 batman-adv: Add lockdep_asserts for documented external locks
Some functions already have documentation about locks they require inside
their kerneldoc header. These can be directly tested during runtime using
the lockdep asserts.

2c72d655b0 batman-adv: Annotate deleting functions with external lock via lockdep
Functions which use (h)list_del* are requiring correct locking when they
operate on global lists. Most of the time the search in the list and the
delete are done in the same function. All other cases should have it
visible that they require a special lock to avoid race conditions.

Lockdep asserts can be used to check these problem during runtime when the
lockdep functionality is enabled.

0b8336f5fc batman-adv: Fix gw_bandwidth calculation on 32 bit systems
The TVLV for the gw_bandwidth stores everything as u32. But the
gw_bandwidth reads the signed long which limits the maximum value to
(2 ** 31 - 1) on systems with 4 byte long. Also the input value is always
converted from either Mibit/s or Kibit/s to 100Kibit/s. This reduces the
values even further when the user sets it via the default unit Kibit/s. It
may even cause an integer overflow and end up with a value the user never
intended.

Instead read the values as u64, check for possible overflows, do the unit
adjustments and then reduce the size to u32.

a121048a89 batman-adv: prevent potential hlist double deletion
The hlist_del_rcu() call in batadv_tt_global_size_mod() does not check
if the element still is part of the list prior to deletion. The atomic
list counter should prevent the worst but converting to
hlist_del_init_rcu() ensures the element can't be deleted more than
once.

751a587ac9 route: fix breakage after moving lwtunnel state
__recnt and related fields need to be in its own cacheline for performance
reasons. Commit 61adedf3e3 ("route: move lwtunnel state to dst_entry")
broke that on 32bit archs, causing BUILD_BUG_ON in dst_hold to be triggered.

This patch fixes the breakage by moving the lwtunnel state to the end of
dst_entry on 32bit archs. Unfortunately, this makes it share the cacheline
with __refcnt and may affect performance, thus further patches may be
needed.

tipc: fix link failover/synch problems

We fix three problems with the new link failover/synch implementation,
which was introduced earlier in this release cycle. They are all related
to situations where there is a very short interval between the disabling
and enabling of interfaces.

2be80c2d87 tipc: fix stale link problem during synchronization
Recent changes to the link synchronization means that we can now just
drop packets arriving on the synchronizing link before the synch point
is reached. This has lead to significant simplifications to the
implementation, but also turns out to have a flip side that we need
to consider.

Under unlucky circumstances, the two endpoints may end up
repeatedly dropping each other's packets, while immediately
asking for retransmission of the same packets, just to drop
them once more. This pattern will eventually be broken when
the synch point is reached on the other link, but before that,
the endpoints may have arrived at the retransmission limit
(stale counter) that indicates that the link should be broken.
We see this happen at rare occasions.

The fix for this is to not ask for retransmissions when a link is in
state LINK_SYNCHING. The fact that the link has reached this state
means that it has already received the first SYNCH packet, and that it
knows the synch point. Hence, it doesn't need any more packets until the
other link has reached the synch point, whereafter it can go ahead and
ask for the missing packets.

However, because of the reduced traffic on the synching link that
follows this change, it may now take longer to discover that the
synch point has been reached. We compensate for this by letting all
packets, on any of the links, trig a check for synchronization
termination. This is possible because the packets themselves don't
contain any information that is needed for discovering this condition.

5ae2f8e685 tipc: interrupt link synchronization when a link goes down
When we introduced the new link failover/synch mechanism
in commit 6e498158a8
("tipc: move link synch and failover to link aggregation level"),
we missed the case when the non-tunnel link goes down during the link
synchronization period. In this case the tunnel link will remain in
state LINK_SYNCHING, something leading to unpredictable behavior when
the failover procedure is initiated.

In this commit, we ensure that the node and remaining link goes
back to regular communication state (SELF_UP_PEER_UP/LINK_ESTABLISHED)
when one of the parallel links goes down. We also ensure that we don't
re-enter synch mode if subsequent SYNCH packets arrive on the remaining
link.

17b2063077 tipc: eliminate risk of premature link setup during failover
When a link goes down, and there is still a working link towards its
destination node, a failover is initiated, and the failed link is not
allowed to re-establish until that procedure is finished. To ensure
this, the concerned link endpoints are set to state LINK_FAILINGOVER,
and the node endpoints to NODE_FAILINGOVER during the failover period.

However, if the link reset is due to a disabled bearer, the corres-
ponding link endpoint is deleted, and only the node endpoint knows
about the ongoing failover. Now, if the disabled bearer is re-enabled
during the failover period, the discovery mechanism may create a new
link endpoint that is ready to be established, despite that this is not
permitted. This situation may cause both the ongoing failover and any
subsequent link synchronization to fail.

In this commit, we ensure that a newly created link goes directly to
state LINK_FAILINGOVER if the corresponding node state is
NODE_FAILINGOVER. This eliminates the problem described above.

Furthermore, we tighten the criteria for which packets are allowed
to end a failover state in the function tipc_node_check_state().
By checking that the receiving link is up and running, instead of just
checking that it is not in failover mode, we eliminate the risk that
protocol packets from the re-created link may cause the failover to
be prematurely terminated.
