d5fdd6babc ipv6: Use correct data types for ICMPv6 type and code
Change all the code that deals directly with ICMPv6 type and code
values to use u8 instead of a signed int as that's the actual data
type.

8283637231 [IPV6] TUNNEL6: Fix incoming packet length check for inter-protocol tunnel.
I discover a strange behavior in [ipv4 in ipv6] tunnel. When IPv6 tunnel
payload is less than 40(0x28), packet can be sent to network, received in
physical interface, but not seen in IP tunnel interface. No counter increase
in tunnel interface.

e5bbef20e0 [IPV6]: Replace sk_buff ** with sk_buff * in input handlers
With all the users of the double pointers removed from the IPv6 input path,
this patch converts all occurances of sk_buff ** to sk_buff * in IPv6 input
handlers.

73d605d1ab [IPSEC]: changing API of xfrm6_tunnel_register
This patch changes xfrm6_tunnel register and deregister
interface to prepare for solving the conflict of device
tunnels with inter address family IPsec tunnel.
There is no device which conflicts with IPv4 over IPv6
IPsec tunnel.

50fba2aa7c [INET]: Move no-tunnel ICMP error to tunnel4/tunnel6
This patch moves the sending of ICMP messages when there are no IPv4/IPv6
tunnels present to tunnel4/tunnel6 respectively.  Please note that for now
if xfrm4_tunnel/xfrm6_tunnel is loaded then no ICMP messages will ever be
sent.  This is similar to how we handle AH/ESP/IPCOMP.

This move fixes the bug where we always send an ICMP message when there is
no ip6_tunnel device present for a given packet even if it is later handled
by IPsec.  It also causes ICMP messages to be sent when no IPIP tunnel is
present.

I've decided to use the "port unreachable" ICMP message over the current
value of "address unreachable" (and "protocol unreachable" by GRE) because
it is not ambiguous unlike the other ones which can be triggered by other
conditions.  There seems to be no standard specifying what value must be
used so this change should be OK.  In fact we should change GRE to use
this value as well.

Incidentally, this patch also fixes a fairly serious bug in xfrm6_tunnel
where we don't check whether the embedded IPv6 header is present before
dereferencing it for the inside source address.

This patch is inspired by a previous patch by Hugo Santos <hsantos@av.it.pt>.

d2acc3479c [INET]: Introduce tunnel4/tunnel6
Basically this patch moves the generic tunnel protocol stuff out of
xfrm4_tunnel/xfrm6_tunnel and moves it into the new files of tunnel4.c
and tunnel6 respectively.

The reason for this is that the problem that Hugo uncovered is only
the tip of the iceberg.  The real problem is that when we removed the
dependency of ipip on xfrm4_tunnel we didn't really consider the module
case at all.

For instance, as it is it's possible to build both ipip and xfrm4_tunnel
as modules and if the latter is loaded then ipip simply won't load.

After considering the alternatives I've decided that the best way out of
this is to restore the dependency of ipip on the non-xfrm-specific part
of xfrm4_tunnel.  This is acceptable IMHO because the intention of the
removal was really to be able to use ipip without the xfrm subsystem.
This is still preserved by this patch.

So now both ipip/xfrm4_tunnel depend on the new tunnel4.c which handles
the arbitration between the two.  The order of processing is determined
by a simple integer which ensures that ipip gets processed before
xfrm4_tunnel.

The situation for ICMP handling is a little bit more complicated since
we may not have enough information to determine who it's for.  It's not
a big deal at the moment since the xfrm ICMP handlers are basically
no-ops.  In future we can deal with this when we look at ICMP caching
in general.

The user-visible change to this is the removal of the TUNNEL Kconfig
prompts.  This makes sense because it can only be used through IPCOMP
as it stands.

The addition of the new modules shouldn't introduce any problems since
module dependency will cause them to be loaded.

Oh and I also turned some unnecessary pskb's in IPv6 related to this
patch to skb's.
