Add a sysctl nf_ipv4_defrag_skip to skip defragmentation per
interface. This is set 0 to preserve existing behavior (always
defrag per interface).
This is useful for pure ipv4 forwarding scenarios (without NAT)
in conjunction with xfrm. It appears that network stack defrags
the packets and then forwards them to xfrm which then encrypts
and then later fragments them on a different boundary compared
to the source.

This commit adds a new sysctl accept_ra_rt_info_min_plen that
defines the minimum acceptable prefix length of Route Information
Options. The new sysctl is intended to be used together with
accept_ra_rt_info_max_plen to configure a range of acceptable
prefix lengths. It is useful to prevent misconfigurations from
unintentionally blackholing too much of the IPv6 address space
(e.g., home routers announcing RIOs for fc00::/7, which is
incorrect).

Add a cold_boot parameter which supplements the
boot_reason sysctl entry with information about
whether the system was booted from cold or warm state.
/proc/sys/kernel/cold_boot entry is updated with 1 or 0 when
system was booted from cold or warm boot state respecitively.

During board initialization read the shared memory item
SMEM_POWER_ON_STATUS_INFO and place it in the procfs at
/proc/sys/kernel/boot_reason
The data item is an integer with a bit being set to identify the reason
the device was powered on. The values of this data item is defined in
the document Document/arm/msm/boot.txt, the following is the data in the
documentation file.
power_on_status values set by the PMIC for power on event:
----------------------------------------------------------
0x01 -- keyboard power on
0x02 -- RTC alarm
0x04 -- cable power on
0x08 -- SMPL
0x10 -- Watch Dog timeout
0x20 -- USB charger
0x40 -- Wall charger
0xFF -- error reading power_on_status value

There have been several times where I have had to rebuild a kernel to
cause a panic when hitting a WARN() in the code in order to get a crash
dump from a system. Sometimes this is easy to do, other times (such as
in the case of a remote admin) it is not trivial to send new images to
the user.
A much easier method would be a switch to change the WARN() over to a
panic. This makes debugging easier in that I can now test the actual
image the WARN() was seen on and I do not have to engage in remote
debugging.
This patch adds a panic_on_warn kernel parameter and
/proc/sys/kernel/panic_on_warn calls panic() in the
warn_slowpath_common() path. The function will still print out the
location of the warning.
An example of the panic_on_warn output:
The first line below is from the WARN_ON() to output the WARN_ON()'s
location. After that the panic() output is displayed.

rather a machine shuts down than being potentially compromised either

This can be used in virtual networking applications, and
may have other uses as well. The option is disabled by
default.
A specific use case is setting up virtual routers, bridges, and
hosts on a single OS without the use of network namespaces or
virtual machines. With proper use of ip rules, routing tables,
veth interface pairs and/or other virtual interfaces,
and applications that can bind to interfaces and/or IP addresses,
it is possibly to create one or more virtual routers with multiple
hosts attached. The host interfaces can act as IPv6 systems,
with radvd running on the ports in the virtual routers. With the
option provided in this patch enabled, those hosts can now properly
obtain IPv6 addresses from the radvd.
