of helper functions:
- carp_master() - boolean function which is true if an address
is in the MASTER state.
- ifa_preferred() - boolean function that compares two addresses,
and is aware of CARP.
Utilize ifa_preferred() in ifa_ifwithnet().
The previous version of patch also changed source address selection
logic in jails using carp_master(), but we failed to negotiate this part
with Bjoern. May be we will approach this problem again later.

Since ARP and routing are separated, "proxy only" entries
don't have any meaning, thus we don't need additional field
in sockaddr to pass SIN_PROXY flag.
New kernel is binary compatible with old tools, since sizes
of sockaddr_inarp and sockaddr_in match, and sa_family are
filled with same value.
The structure declaration is left for compatibility with
third party software, but in tree code no longer use it.

lle_event replaced arp_update_event after the ARP rewrite and ended up
in if_ether.h simply because arp_update_event used to be there too.
IPv6 neighbor discovery is going to grow lle_event support and this is a
good time to move it to if_llatbl.h.
The two in-tree consumers of this event - OFED and toecore - are not
affected.

logic (refer to [1] for associated discussion). snd_cwnd and snd_wnd are
unsigned long and on 64 bit hosts, min() will truncate them to 32 bits and could
therefore potentially corrupt the result (although under normal operation,
neither variable should legitmately exceed 32 bits).

SYNs (or SYN/ACK replies) are dropped due to network congestion, then the
remote end of the connection may act as if options such as window scaling
are enabled but the local end will think they are not. This can result in
very slow data transfers in the case of window scaling disagreements.
The old behavior can be obtained by setting the
net.inet.tcp.rexmit_drop_options sysctl to a non-zero value.

This allows external scripts to control demotion factor together

all interested parties in case if interface flag IFF_UP has changed.
However, not only SIOCSIFFLAGS can raise the flag, but SIOCAIFADDR
and SIOCAIFADDR_IN6 can, too. The actual |= is done not in the protocol
code, but in code of interface drivers. To fix this historical layering
violation, we will check whether ifp->if_ioctl(SIOCSIFADDR) raised the
IFF_UP flag, and if it did, run the if_up() handler.
This fixes configuring an address under CARP control on an interface
that was initially !IFF_UP.
P.S. I intentionally omitted handling the IFF_SMART flag. This flag was
never ever used in any driver since it was introduced, and since it
means another layering violation, it should be garbage collected instead
of pretended to be supported.

perform LLE_FREE_LOCKED(). Otherwise, if the race is lost by the thread
performing arptimer(), it will remove two references from the lle instead
