Eric Dumazet a853c60950 inetpeer: do not get a refcount in inet_getpeer()
All inet_getpeer() callers except ip4_frag_init() don't need
to acquire a permanent refcount on the inetpeer.

They can switch to full RCU protection.

Move the refcount_inc_not_zero() into ip4_frag_init(),
so that all the other callers no longer have to
perform a pair of expensive atomic operations on
a possibly contended cache line.

inet_putpeer() no longer needs to be exported.

After this patch, my DUT can receive 8,400,000 UDP packets
per second targeting closed ports, using 50% less cpu cycles
than before.

Also change two calls to l3mdev_master_ifindex() by
l3mdev_master_ifindex_rcu() (Ido ideas)

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
