bonding: Manage /proc/net/bonding/ entries from the netdev events
It was recently reported that moving a bonding device between network
namespaces causes warnings from /proc. It turns out after the move we
were trying to add and to remove the /proc/net/bonding entries from the
wrong network namespace.
Move the bonding /proc registration code into the NETDEV_REGISTER and
NETDEV_UNREGISTER events where the proc registration and unregistration
will always happen at the right time.

iwlegacy: don't mess up the SCD when removing a key
When we remove a key, we put a key index which was supposed
to tell the fw that we are actually removing the key. But
instead the fw took that index as a valid index and messed
up the SRAM of the device.
This memory corruption on the device mangled the data of
the SCD. The impact on the user is that SCD queue 2 got
stuck after having removed keys.

If we only monitor while associated, the following
can happen:
- we're associated, and the queue stuck check
runs, setting the queue "touch" time to X
- we disassociate, stopping the monitoring,
which leaves the time set to X
- almost 2s later, we associate, and enqueue
a frame
- before the frame is transmitted, we monitor
for stuck queues, and find the time set to
X, although it is now later than X + 2000ms,
so we decide that the queue is stuck and

- We are allowed to put 4 bytes at tail if skb_cloned()

Most multi-queue networking driver consider the number of online cpus when
configuring RSS queues.
This patch adds a wrapper to the number of cpus, setting an upper limit on the
number of cpus a driver should consider (by default) when allocating resources
for his queues.

sunrpc: Don't do a dst_confirm() on an input routes.
xs_udp_data_ready() is operating on received packets, and tries to
do a dst_confirm() on the dst attached to the SKB.
This isn't right, dst confirmation is for output routes, not input
rights. It's for resetting the timers on the nexthop neighbour entry
for the route, indicating that we've got good evidence that we've
successfully reached it.
