	Due to the use of rhashtables in net namespaces, rhashtable.h is included in lots of the kernel, so a small changes can required a large recompilation. This makes development painful. This patch splits out rhashtable-types.h which just includes the major type declarations, and does not include (non-trivial) inline code. rhashtable.h is no longer included by anything in the include/ directory. Common include files only include rhashtable-types.h so a large recompilation is only triggered when that changes.

2016-11-09	ipv6: sr: add core files for SR HMAC support	David Lebrun	1	-0/+62
	This patch adds the necessary functions to compute and check the HMAC signature of an SR-enabled packet. Two HMAC algorithms are supported: hmac(sha1) and hmac(sha256). In order to avoid dynamic memory allocation for each HMAC computation, a per-cpu ring buffer is allocated for this purpose. A new per-interface sysctl called seg6_require_hmac is added, allowing a user-defined policy for processing HMAC-signed SR-enabled packets. A value of -1 means that the HMAC field will always be ignored. A value of 0 means that if an HMAC field is present, its validity will be enforced (the packet is dropped is the signature is incorrect). Finally, a value of 1 means that any SR-enabled packet that does not contain an HMAC signature or whose signature is incorrect will be dropped.
