Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 0/7] net: ILA resolver and generic resolver backend

This patch set implements an ILA host side resolver. This uses LWT to
implement the hook to a userspace resolver and tracks pending unresolved
address using the backend net resolver.

This patch set contains:

- An new library function to allocate an array of spinlocks for use
  with locking hash buckets.
- Make hash function in rhashtable directly callable.
- A generic resolver backend infrastructure. This primary does two
  things: track unsesolved addresses and implement a timeout for
  resolution not happening. These mechanisms provides rate limiting
  control over resolution requests (for instance in ILA it use used
  to rate limit requests to userspace to resolve addresses).
- The ILA resolver. This is implements to path from the kernel ILA
  implementation to a userspace daemon that an identifier address
  needs to be resolved.
- Routing messages are used over netlink to indicate resoltion
  requests.

Changes from intial RFC:

 - Added net argument to LWT build_state
 - Made resolve timeout an attribute of the LWT encap route
 - Changed ILA notifications to be regular routing messages of event
   RTM_ADDR_RESOLVE, family RTNL_FAMILY_ILA, and group
   RTNLGRP_ILA_NOTIFY

Tested:
 - Ran a UDP flood to random addresses in a resolver prefix. Observed
   timeout and limits were working (watching "ip monitor").
 - Also ran against an ILA client daemon that runs the resolver
   protocol. Observed that when resolution completes (ILA encap route is
   installed) routing messages are no longer sent.

v2:
 - Fixed function prototype issue found by kbuild
 - Fix inccorrect interpretation of return code from
   net_rslv_lookup_and_create

Tom Herbert (7):
  lwt: Add net to build_state argument
  spinlock: Add library function to allocate spinlock buckets array
  rhashtable: Call library function alloc_bucket_locks
  ila: Call library function alloc_bucket_locks
  rhashtable: abstract out function to get hash
  net: Generic resolver backend
  ila: Resolver mechanism
