This change allows for gateway routing, where a route table entry
may reference a routable endpoint (by network and EID), instead of
routing directly to a netdevice.
We add support for a RTM_GATEWAY attribute for netlink route updates,
with an attribute format of:
struct mctp_fq_addr {
unsigned int net;
mctp_eid_t eid;
}
- we need the net here to uniquely identify the target EID, as we no
longer have the device reference directly (which would provide the net
id in the case of direct routes).
This makes route lookups recursive, as a route lookup that returns a
gateway route must be resolved into a direct route (ie, to a device)
eventually. We provide a limit to the route lookups, to prevent infinite
loop routing.
The route lookup populates a new 'nexthop' field in the dst structure,
which now specifies the key for the neighbour table lookup on device
output, rather than using the packet destination address directly.

Now that we have net-specific tags, extend the tag allocation ioctls
(SIOCMCTPALLOCTAG / SIOCMCTPDROPTAG) to allow a network parameter to be
passed to the tag allocation.
We also add a local_addr member to the ioc struct, to allow for a future
finer-grained tag allocation using local EIDs too. We don't add any
specific support for that now though, so require MCTP_ADDR_ANY or
MCTP_ADDR_NULL for those at present.
The old ioctls will still work, but allocate for the default MCTP net.
These are now marked as deprecated in the header.

This change adds a couple of new ioctls for mctp sockets:
SIOCMCTPALLOCTAG and SIOCMCTPDROPTAG. These ioctls provide facilities
for explicit allocation / release of tags, overriding the automatic
allocate-on-send/release-on-reply and timeout behaviours. This allows
userspace more control over messages that may not fit a simple
request/response model.
In order to indicate a pre-allocated tag to the sendmsg() syscall, we
introduce a new flag to the struct sockaddr_mctp.smctp_tag value:
MCTP_TAG_PREALLOC.

This change allows an extended address struct - struct sockaddr_mctp_ext
- to be passed to sendmsg/recvmsg. This allows userspace to specify
output ifindex and physical address information (for sendmsg) or receive
the input ifindex/physaddr for incoming messages (for recvmsg). This is
typically used by userspace for MCTP address discovery and assignment
operations.
The extended addressing facility is conditional on a new sockopt:
MCTP_OPT_ADDR_EXT; userspace must explicitly enable addressing before
the kernel will consume/populate the extended address data.
Includes a fix for an uninitialised var:

We currently have some implicit padding in struct sockaddr_mctp. This
patch makes this padding explicit, and ensures we have consistent
layout on platforms with <32bit alignmnent.

Use the more precise __kernel_sa_family_t for smctp_family, to match
struct sockaddr.
Also, use an unsigned int for the network member; negative networks
don't make much sense. We're already using unsigned for mctp_dev and
mctp_skb_cb, but need to change mctp_sock to suit.

Currently we have a compile-time default network
(MCTP_INITIAL_DEFAULT_NET). This change introduces a default_net field
on the net namespace, allowing future configuration for new interfaces.

This change adds the infrastructure for managing MCTP netdevices; we add
a pointer to the AF_MCTP-specific data to struct netdevice, and hook up
the rtnetlink operations for adding and removing addresses.
