percpu: add __percpu sparse annotations to net
Add __percpu sparse annotations to net.
These annotations are to make sparse consider percpu variables to be
in a different address space and warn if accessed without going
through percpu accessors. This patch doesn't affect normal builds.
The macro and type tricks around snmp stats make things a bit
interesting. DEFINE/DECLARE_SNMP_STAT() macros mark the target field
as __percpu and SNMP_UPD_PO_STATS() macro is updated accordingly. All
snmp_mib_*() users which used to cast the argument to (void **) are
updated to cast it to (void __percpu **).

CAPI: Fix leaks in capifs_new_ncci
When something went wrong during capifs_new_ncci, the looked up dentry
was not properly released. Neither was the allocated inode. Refactor the
function to avoid leaks.

serial: 8250: add serial transmitter fully empty test
When controlling an industrial radio modem it can be necessary to
manipulate the handshake lines in order to control the radio modem's
transmitter, from userspace.
The transmitter should not be turned off before all characters have been
transmitted. serial8250_tx_empty() was reporting that all characters were
transmitted before they actually were.
===
Discovered in parallel with more testing and analysis by Kees Schoenmakers
as follows:
I ran into an NetMos 9835 serial pci board which behaves a little
different than the standard. This type of expansion board is very common.
"Standard" 8250 compatible devices clear the 'UART_LST_TEMT" bit together
with the "UART_LSR_THRE" bit when writing data to the device.
The NetMos device does it slightly different
I believe that the TEMT bit is coupled to the shift register. The problem
is that after writing data to the device and very quickly after that one
does call serial8250_tx_empty, it returns the wrong information.
My patch makes the test more robust (and solves the problem) and it does
not affect the already correct devices.
Alan:
We may yet need to quirk this but now we know which chips we have a
way to do that should we find this breaks some other 8250 clone with
dodgy THRE.

net neigh: Decouple per interface neighbour table controls from binary sysctls
Stop computing the number of neighbour table settings we have by
counting the number of binary sysctls. This behaviour was silly
and meant that we could not add another neighbour table setting
without also adding another binary sysctl.
Don't pass the binary sysctl path for neighour table entries
into neigh_sysctl_register. These parameters are no longer
used and so are just dead code.

net ipv4: Decouple ipv4 interface parameters from binary sysctl numbers
Stop using the binary sysctl enumeartion in sysctl.h as an index into
a per interface array. This leads to unnecessary binary sysctl number
allocation, and a fragility in data structure and implementation
because of unnecessary coupling.
