Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/5] ipv6: cleanup after rt6_genid removal

Leftover patches after rt6_genid removal after 705f1c869d577c ("ipv6:
remove rt6i_genid").

Major two changes are:
* keep fib6_sernum per namespace to reduce number of flushes in case
  system has high number of namespaces
* make fn_sernum updates cheaper

Hannes Frederic Sowa (5):
  ipv6: minor fib6 cleanups like type safety, bool conversion, inline
    removal
  ipv6: make rt_sernum atomic and serial number fields ordinary ints
  ipv6: only generate one new serial number per fib mutation
  ipv6: make fib6 serial number per namespace
  ipv6: don't walk node's leaf during serial number update
