bf4afc53b7 Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

69050f8d6d treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

f8a062b255 ovpn: Replace use of system_wq with system_percpu_wq
This patch continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which has begun
with the changes introducing new workqueues and a new alloc_workqueue flag:

   commit 128ea9f6cc ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq")
   commit 930c2ea566 ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag")

The point of the refactoring is to eventually alter the default behavior of
workqueues to become unbound by default so that their workload placement is
optimized by the scheduler.

Before that to happen after a careful review and conversion of each individual
case, workqueue users must be converted to the better named new workqueues with
no intended behaviour changes:

   system_wq -> system_percpu_wq
   system_unbound_wq -> system_dfl_wq

This way the old obsolete workqueues (system_wq, system_unbound_wq) can be
removed in the future.

Modules linked in: ovpn(O)

This happens because the peer deletion operation reaches
ovpn_socket_release() while ovpn_sock->sock (struct socket *)
and its sk member (struct sock *) are still both valid.
Here synchronize_rcu() is invoked, after which ovpn_sock->sock->sk
becomes NULL, due to the concurrent socket closing triggered
from userspace.

After having invoked synchronize_rcu(), ovpn_socket_release() will
attempt dereferencing ovpn_sock->sock->sk, triggering the crash
reported above.

The reason for accessing sk is that we need to retrieve its
protocol and continue the cleanup routine accordingly.

This crash can be easily produced by running openvpn userspace in
client mode with `--keepalive 10 20`, while entirely omitting this
option on the server side.
After 20 seconds ovpn will assume the peer (server) to be dead,
will start removing it and will notify userspace. The latter will
receive the notification and close the transport socket, thus
triggering the crash.

To fix the race condition for good, we need to refactor struct ovpn_socket.
Since ovpn is always only interested in the sock->sk member (struct sock *)
we can directly hold a reference to it, raher than accessing it via
its struct socket container.

This means changing "struct socket *ovpn_socket->sock" to
"struct sock *ovpn_socket->sk".

While acquiring a reference to sk, we can increase its refcounter
without affecting the socket close()/destroy() notification
(which we rely on when userspace closes a socket we are using).

By increasing sk's refcounter we know we can dereference it
in ovpn_socket_release() without incurring in any race condition
anymore.

ovpn_socket_release() will ultimately decrease the reference
counter.

adcdaac57d ovpn: drop useless reg_state check in keepalive worker
The keepalive worker is cancelled before calling
unregister_netdevice_queue(), therefore it will never
hit a situation where the reg_state can be different
than NETDEV_REGISTERED.

For this reason, checking reg_state is useless and the
condition can be removed.

a215d253c1 ovpn: notify userspace when a peer is deleted
Whenever a peer is deleted, send a notification to userspace so that it
can react accordingly.

This is most important when a peer is deleted due to ping timeout,
because it all happens in kernelspace and thus userspace has no direct
way to learn about it.

a3aaef8cd1 ovpn: implement peer lookup logic
In a multi-peer scenario there are a number of situations when a
specific peer needs to be looked up.

We may want to lookup a peer by:
1. its ID
2. its VPN destination IP
3. its transport IP/port couple

For each of the above, there is a specific routing table referencing all
peers for fast look up.

Case 2. is a bit special in the sense that an outgoing packet may not be
sent to the peer VPN IP directly, but rather to a network behind it. For
this reason we first perform a nexthop lookup in the system routing
table and then we use the retrieved nexthop as peer search key.
