net: core: Make the FIB notification chain generic The FIB notification chain is currently soley used by IPv4 code. However, we're going to introduce IPv6 FIB offload support, which requires these notification as well. As explained in commit c3852ef7f2f8 ("ipv4: fib: Replay events when registering FIB notifier"), upon registration to the chain, the callee receives a full dump of the FIB tables and rules by traversing all the net namespaces. The integrity of the dump is ensured by a per-namespace sequence counter that is incremented whenever a change to the tables or rules occurs. In order to allow more address families to use the chain, each family is expected to register its fib_notifier_ops in its pernet init. These operations allow the common code to read the family's sequence counter as well as dump its tables and rules in the given net namespace. Additionally, a 'family' parameter is added to sent notifications, so that listeners could distinguish between the different families. Implement the common code that allows listeners to register to the chain and for address families to register their fib_notifier_ops. Subsequent patches will implement these operations in IPv6. In the future, ipmr and ip6mr will be extended to provide these notifications as well.

net: fib: drop include of module.h from fib_notifier.h Ideally, header files under include/linux shouldn't be adding includes of other headers, in anticipation of their consumers, but just the headers needed for the header itself to pass parsing with CPP. The module.h is particularly bad in this sense, as it itself does include a whole bunch of other headers, due to the complexity of module support. Since fib_notifier.h is not going into a module struct looking for specific fields, we can just let it know that module is a struct, just like about 60 other include/linux headers already do.

fib: notifier: Add VIF add and delete event types In order for an interface to forward packets according to the kernel multicast routing table, it must be configured with a VIF index according to the mroute user API. The VIF index is then used to refer to that interface in the mroute user API, for example, to set the iif and oifs of an MFC entry. In order to allow drivers to be aware and offload multicast routes, they have to be aware of the VIF add and delete notifications. Due to the fact that a specific VIF can be deleted and re-added pointing to another netdevice, and the MFC routes that point to it will forward the matching packets to the new netdevice, a driver willing to offload MFC cache entries must be aware of the VIF add and delete events in addition to MFC routes notifications.

net: Add module reference to FIB notifiers When a listener registers to the FIB notification chain it receives a dump of the FIB entries and rules from existing address families by invoking their dump operations. While we call into these modules we need to make sure they aren't removed. Do that by increasing their reference count before invoking their dump operations and decrease it afterwards.
