/*
 *  Theory of operations.
 *  We keep one entry for each peer IP address.  The nodes contains long-living
 *  information about the peer which doesn't depend on routes.
 *  At this moment this information consists only of ID field for the next
 *  outgoing IP packet.  This field is incremented with each packet as encoded
 *  in inet_getid() function (include/net/inetpeer.h).
 *  At the moment of writing this notes identifier of IP packets is generated
 *  to be unpredictable using this code only for packets subjected
 *  (actually or potentially) to defragmentation.  I.e. DF packets less than
 *  PMTU in size uses a constant ID and do not use this code (see
 *  ip_select_ident() in include/net/ip.h).
 *
 *  Route cache entries hold references to our nodes.
 *  New cache entries get references via lookup by destination IP address in
 *  the avl tree.  The reference is grabbed only when it's needed i.e. only
 *  when we try to output IP packet which needs an unpredictable ID (see
 *  __ip_select_ident() in net/ipv4/route.c).
 *  Nodes are removed only when reference counter goes to 0.
 *  When it's happened the node may be removed when a sufficient amount of
 *  time has been passed since its last use.  The less-recently-used entry can
 *  also be removed if the pool is overloaded i.e. if the total amount of
 *  entries is greater-or-equal than the threshold.
 *
 *  Node pool is organised as an AVL tree.
 *  Such an implementation has been chosen not just for fun.  It's a way to
 *  prevent easy and efficient DoS attacks by creating hash collisions.  A huge
 *  amount of long living nodes in a single hash slot would significantly delay
 *  lookups performed with disabled BHs.
 *
 *  Serialisation issues.
 *  1.  Nodes may appear in the tree only with the pool lock held.
 *  2.  Nodes may disappear from the tree only with the pool lock held
 *      AND reference count being 0.
 *  3.  Nodes appears and disappears from unused node list only under
 *      "inet_peer_unused_lock".
 *  4.  Global variable peer_total is modified under the pool lock.
 *  5.  struct inet_peer fields modification:
 *		avl_left, avl_right, avl_parent, avl_height: pool lock
 *		unused: unused node list lock
 *		refcnt: atomically against modifications on other CPU;
 *		   usually under some other lock to prevent node disappearing
 *		dtime: unused node list lock
 *		daddr: unchangeable
 *		ip_id_count: atomic value (no lock needed)
