asm/unaligned.h is always an include of asm-generic/unaligned.h;
might as well move that thing to linux/unaligned.h and include
that - there's nothing arch-specific in that header.

<title>sysctl: treewide: constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers</title>

const qualify the struct ctl_table argument in the proc_handler function
signatures. This is a prerequisite to moving the static ctl_table
structs into .rodata data which will ensure that proc_handler function
pointers cannot be modified.

This patch has been generated by the following coccinelle script:

```

* Code formatting was adjusted in xfs_sysctl.c to comply with code
  conventions. The xfs_stats_clear_proc_handler,
  xfs_panic_mask_proc_handler and xfs_deprecated_dointvec_minmax where
  adjusted.

* The ctl_table argument in proc_watchdog_common was const qualified.
  This is called from a proc_handler itself and is calling back into
  another proc_handler, making it necessary to change it as part of the
  proc_handler migration.

<title>ipvs: constify ctl_table arguments of utility functions</title>

<content type='text'>
The sysctl core is preparing to only expose instances of
struct ctl_table as "const".
This will also affect the ctl_table argument of sysctl handlers.

As the function prototype of all sysctl handlers throughout the tree
needs to stay consistent that change will be done in one commit.

To reduce the size of that final commit, switch utility functions which
are not bound by "typedef proc_handler" to "const struct ctl_table".

No functional change.

<title>ipvs: allow some sysctls in non-init user namespaces</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2b696a2a101d36530227056b43e5c4ec05bcefc2</id>

Let's make all IPVS sysctls writtable even when
network namespace is owned by non-initial user namespace.

Let's make a few sysctls to be read-only for non-privileged users:
- sync_qlen_max
- sync_sock_size
- run_estimation
- est_cpulist
- est_nice

I'm trying to be conservative with this to prevent
introducing any security issues in there. Maybe,
we can allow more sysctls to be writable, but let's
do this on-demand and when we see real use-case.

This patch is motivated by user request in the LXC
project [1]. Having this can help with running some
Kubernetes [2] or Docker Swarm [3] workloads inside the system
containers.

<title>netfilter: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array</title>

<id>urn:sha1:635470eb0aa71ba41c47593c66f65ac1e5d59dd7</id>
<content type='text'>
This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which will
reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory
bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)

* Remove sentinel elements from ctl_table structs
* Remove instances where an array element is zeroed out to make it look
  like a sentinel. This is not longer needed and is safe after commit
  c899710fe7f9 ("networking: Update to register_net_sysctl_sz") added
  the array size to the ctl_table registration
* Remove the need for having __NF_SYSCTL_CT_LAST_SYSCTL as the
  sysctl array size is now in NF_SYSCTL_CT_LAST_SYSCTL
* Remove extra element in ctl_table arrays declarations

<title>inet: introduce dst_rtable() helper</title>

I added dst_rt6_info() in commit
e8dfd42c17fa ("ipv6: introduce dst_rt6_info() helper")

This patch does a similar change for IPv4.

Instead of (struct rtable *)dst casts, we can use :

 #define dst_rtable(_ptr) \
             container_of_const(_ptr, struct rtable, dst)

Patch is smaller than IPv6 one, because IPv4 has skb_rtable() helper.

Some places needed missing const qualifiers :

ip6_confirm_neigh(), ipv6_anycast_destination(),
ipv6_unicast_destination(), has_gateway()

v2: added missing parts (David Ahern)
