net: move misc netdev_lock flavors to a separate header

Move the more esoteric helpers for netdev instance lock to
a dedicated header. This avoids growing netdevice.h to infinity
and makes rebuilding the kernel much faster (after touching
the header with the helpers).

The main netdev_lock() / netdev_unlock() functions are used
in static inlines in netdevice.h and will probably be used
most commonly, so keep them in netdevice.h.

rtnetlink: Pack newlink() params into struct

There are 4 net namespaces involved when creating links:

- source netns - where the netlink socket resides,
- target netns - where to put the device being created,
- link netns - netns associated with the device (backend),
- peer netns - netns of peer device.

Currently, two nets are passed to newlink() callback - "src_net"
parameter and "dev_net" (implicitly in net_device). They are set as
follows, depending on netlink attributes in the request.

+------------+-------------------+---------+---------+
| peer netns | IFLA_LINK_NETNSID | src_net | dev_net |
+------------+-------------------+---------+---------+
| | absent | source | target |
| absent +-------------------+---------+---------+
| | present | link | link |
+------------+-------------------+---------+---------+
| | absent | peer | target |
| present +-------------------+---------+---------+
| | present | peer | link |
+------------+-------------------+---------+---------+

When IFLA_LINK_NETNSID is present, the device is created in link netns
first and then moved to target netns. This has some side effects,
including extra ifindex allocation, ifname validation and link events.
These could be avoided if we create it in target netns from
the beginning.

On the other hand, the meaning of src_net parameter is ambiguous. It
varies depending on how parameters are passed. It is the effective
link (or peer netns) by design, but some drivers ignore it and use
dev_net instead.

To provide more netns context for drivers, this patch packs existing
newlink() parameters, along with the source netns, link netns and peer
netns, into a struct. The old "src_net" is renamed to "net" to avoid
confusion with real source netns, and will be deprecated later. The use
of src_net are converted to params->net trivially.

ipvlan: handle NETDEV_DOWN event

In case of stacked devices, to help propagate the down
link state from the parent/root device (to this leaf device),
handle NETDEV_DOWN event like it is done now for NETDEV_UP.

In the below example, ens5 is the host interface which is the
parent of the ipvlan interface eth0 in the container.

Host:

[root@gkn-podman-x64 ~]# ip link set ens5 down
[root@gkn-podman-x64 ~]# ip -d link show dev ens5
3: ens5: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 9000 qdisc mq state DOWN
...
[root@gkn-podman-x64 ~]#

Container:

[root@testnode-ol8 /]# ip -d link show dev eth0
2: eth0@if3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 9000 state UNKNOWN
...
ipvlan mode l2 bridge
...
[root@testnode-ol8 /]#

eth0's state continues to show up as UP even though ens5 is now DOWN.

For macvlan the handling of NETDEV_DOWN event was added in
commit 80fd2d6ca546 ("macvlan: Change status when lower device goes down").

2) Increments are not atomic. KCSAN would complain eventually.

ipvlan: Fix a reference count leak warning in ipvlan_ns_exit()

There are two network devices(veth1 and veth3) in ns1, and ipvlan1 with
L3S mode and ipvlan2 with L2 mode are created based on them as
figure (1). In this case, ipvlan_register_nf_hook() will be called to
register nf hook which is needed by ipvlans in L3S mode in ns1 and value
of ipvl_nf_hook_refcnt is set to 1.

(1)
ns1 ns2
------------ ------------

veth1--ipvlan1 (L3S)

veth3--ipvlan2 (L2)

(2)
ns1 ns2
------------ ------------

veth1--ipvlan1 (L3S)

ipvlan2 (L2) veth3
| |
|------->-------->--------->--------
migrate

When veth3 migrates from ns1 to ns2 as figure (2), veth3 will register in
ns2 and calls call_netdevice_notifiers with NETDEV_REGISTER event:

dev_change_net_namespace
call_netdevice_notifiers
ipvlan_device_event
ipvlan_migrate_l3s_hook
ipvlan_register_nf_hook(newnet) (I)
ipvlan_unregister_nf_hook(oldnet) (II)

In function ipvlan_migrate_l3s_hook(), ipvl_nf_hook_refcnt in ns1 is not 0
since veth1 with ipvlan1 still in ns1, (I) and (II) will be called to
register nf_hook in ns2 and unregister nf_hook in ns1. As a result,
ipvl_nf_hook_refcnt in ns1 is decreased incorrectly and this in ns2
is increased incorrectly. When the second net namespace is removed, a
reference count leak warning in ipvlan_ns_exit() will be triggered.

This patch add a check before ipvlan_migrate_l3s_hook() is called. The
warning can be triggered as follows:

$ ip netns add ns1
$ ip netns add ns2
$ ip netns exec ns1 ip link add veth1 type veth peer name veth2
$ ip netns exec ns1 ip link add veth3 type veth peer name veth4
$ ip netns exec ns1 ip link add ipv1 link veth1 type ipvlan mode l3s
$ ip netns exec ns1 ip link add ipv2 link veth3 type ipvlan mode l2
$ ip netns exec ns1 ip link set veth3 netns ns2

ipvlan: Add handling of NETDEV_UP events

When an ipvlan device is created on a bond device, the link state
of the ipvlan device may be abnormal. This is because bonding device
allows to add physical network card device in the down state and so
NETDEV_CHANGE event will not be notified to other listeners, so ipvlan
has no chance to update its link status.

The following steps can cause such problems:
1) bond0 is down
2) ip link add link bond0 name ipvlan type ipvlan mode l2
3) echo +enp2s7 >/sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves
4) ip link set bond0 up

After these steps, use ip link command, we found ipvlan has NO-CARRIER:
ipvlan@bond0: <NO-CARRIER, BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,M-DOWN> mtu ...>

We can deal with this problem like VLAN: Add handling of NETDEV_UP
events. If we receive NETDEV_UP event, we will update the link status
of the ipvlan.

net: don't include ethtool.h from netdevice.h

linux/netdevice.h is included in very many places, touching any
of its dependecies causes large incremental builds.

Drop the linux/ethtool.h include, linux/netdevice.h just needs
a forward declaration of struct ethtool_ops.

Fix all the places which made use of this implicit include.

ipvlan: advertise link netns via netlink

Assign rtnl_link_ops->get_link_net() callback so that IFLA_LINK_NETNSID is
added to rtnetlink messages.

Test commands:
