The FIB notification chain currently uses the NLM_F_{REPLACE,APPEND}
flags to signal routes being replaced or appended.
Instead of using netlink flags for in-kernel notifications we can simply
introduce two new events in the FIB notification chain. This has the
added advantage of making the API cleaner, thereby making it clear that
these events should be supported by listeners of the notification chain.

When a FIB alias is replaced following NLM_F_REPLACE, the ENTRY_ADD
notification is sent after the reference on the previous FIB info was
dropped. This is problematic as potential listeners might need to access
it in their notification blocks.
Solve this by sending the notification prior to the deletion of the
replaced FIB alias. This is consistent with ENTRY_DEL notifications.

When a FIB alias is removed, a notification is sent using the type
passed from user space - can be RTN_UNSPEC - instead of the actual type
of the removed alias. This is problematic for listeners of the FIB
notification chain, as several FIB aliases can exist with matching
parameters, but the type.
Solve this by passing the actual type of the removed FIB alias.

In case the MAIN table is flushed and its trie is shared with the LOCAL
table, then we might be flushing FIB aliases belonging to the latter.
This can lead to FIB_ENTRY_DEL notifications sent with the wrong table
ID.
The above doesn't affect current listeners, as the table ID is ignored
during entry deletion, but this will change later in the patchset.
When flushing a particular table, skip any aliases belonging to a
different one.

When a multipath route is hit the kernel doesn't consider nexthops that
are DEAD or LINKDOWN when IN_DEV_IGNORE_ROUTES_WITH_LINKDOWN is set.
Devices that offload multipath routes need to be made aware of nexthop
status changes. Otherwise, the device will keep forwarding packets to
non-functional nexthops.
Add the FIB_EVENT_NH_{ADD,DEL} events to the fib notification chain,
which notify capable devices when they should add or delete a nexthop
from their tables.

We have many gro cells users, so lets move the code to avoid
duplication.
This creates a CONFIG_GRO_CELLS option.
