Fix an error in the comparison direction of the ap->updating case of
in_rtqkill().

Submitted by: W. Richard Stevens

Remove trailing whitespace.

Removed redundant newlines that were in some panic strings.

Added missing newlines to calls to log().

After dynamically reducing rtq_reallyold, have in_rtqkill() reduce the
expiration timer of anything which would expire later than that. (There
should be a way to call this from ip_sysctl() as well,

Add latest version of ``advanced route metric management'' :-)
As before, this is currently conditionalized on options IN_RMX until
I'm sure it's working.

Completely replace JTW's idea with my (incompletely implemented) original
idea. This is les likely to crash your machine. As before, this code is only
enabled under `options IN_RMX'.

This is the file that actually implements the smarter behavior.

Introduce scalable route multipath.

This change is based on the nexthop objects landed in D24232.

The change introduces the concept of nexthop groups.
Each group contains the collection of nexthops with their
relative weights and a dataplane-optimized structure to enable
efficient nexthop selection.

Simular to the nexthops, nexthop groups are immutable. Dataplane part
gets compiled during group creation and is basically an array of
nexthop pointers, compiled w.r.t their weights.

With this change, `rt_nhop` field of `struct rtentry` contains either
nexthop or nexthop group. They are distinguished by the presense of
NHF_MULTIPATH flag.
All dataplane lookup functions returns pointer to the nexthop object,
leaving nexhop groups details inside routing subsystem.

User-visible changes:

The change is intended to be backward-compatible: all non-mpath operations
should work as before with ROUTE_MPATH and net.route.multipath=1.

All routes now comes with weight, default weight is 1, maximum is 2^24-1.

Current maximum multipath group width is statically set to 64.
This will become sysctl-tunable in the followup changes.

Using functionality:
* Recompile kernel with ROUTE_MPATH
* set net.route.multipath to 1

route add -6 2001:db8::/32 2001:db8::2 -weight 10
route add -6 2001:db8::/32 2001:db8::3 -weight 20

netstat -6On

Nexthop groups data

Internet6:
GrpIdx NhIdx Weight Slots Gateway Netif Refcnt
1 ------- ------- ------- --------------------------------------- --------- 1
13 10 1 2001:db8::2 vlan2
14 20 2 2001:db8::3 vlan2

Next steps:
* Land outbound hashing for locally-originated routes ( D26523 ).
* Fix net/bird multipath (net/frr seems to work fine)
* Add ROUTE_MPATH to GENERIC
* Set net.route.multipath=1 by default

Move net/route/shared.h definitions to net/route/route_var.h.

No functional changes.

net/route/shared.h was created in the inital phases of nexthop conversion.
It was intended to serve the same purpose as route_var.h - share definitions
of functions and structures between the routing subsystem components. At
that time route_var.h was included by many files external to the routing
subsystem, which largerly defeats its purpose.

As currently this is not the case anymore and amount of route_var.h includes
is roughly the same as shared.h, retire the latter in favour of the former.

* Add rib_<add|del|change>_route() functions to manipulate the routing table.

The main driver for the change is the need to improve notification mechanism.
Currently callers guess the operation data based on the rtentry structure
returned in case of successful operation result. There are two problems with
this appoach. First is that it doesn't provide enough information for the
upcoming multipath changes, where rtentry refers to a new nexthop group,
and there is no way of guessing which paths were added during the change.
Second is that some rtentry fields can change during notification and
protecting from it by requiring customers to unlock rtentry is not desired.

Additionally, as the consumers such as rtsock do know which operation they
request in advance, making explicit add/change/del versions of the functions
makes sense, especially given the functions don't share a lot of code.

With that in mind, introduce rib_cmd_info notification structure and
rib_<add|del|change>_route() functions, with mandatory rib_cmd_info pointer.
It will be used in upcoming generalized notifications.

* Move definitions of the new functions and some other functions/structures
used for the routing table manipulation to a separate header file,
net/route/route_ctl.h. net/route.h is a frequently used file included in
~140 places in kernel, and 90% of the users don't need these definitions.
