      bpf: split eBPF out of NET · f89b7755

      introduce two configs:
      - hidden CONFIG_BPF to select eBPF interpreter that classic socket filters
        depend on
      - visible CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL (default off) that tracing and sockets can use
      
      that solves several problems:
      - tracing and others that wish to use eBPF don't need to depend on NET.
        They can use BPF_SYSCALL to allow loading from userspace or select BPF
        to use it directly from kernel in NET-less configs.
      - in 3.18 programs cannot be attached to events yet, so don't force it on
      - when the rest of eBPF infra is there in 3.19+, it's still useful to
        switch it off to minimize kernel size
      
      bloat-o-meter on x64 shows:
      add/remove: 0/60 grow/shrink: 0/2 up/down: 0/-15601 (-15601)
      
      tested with many different config combinations. Hopefully didn't miss anything.

      cxgb4 : DCBx fixes for apps/host lldp agents
      
      This patchset  contains some minor fixes for cxgb4 DCBx code. Chiefly, cxgb4
      was not cleaning up any apps added to kernel app table when link was lost.
      Disabling DCBx in firmware would automatically set DCBx state to host-managed
      and enabled, we now wait for an explicit enable call from an lldp agent instead
      
      First patch was originally sent to net-next, but considering it applies to
      correcting behaviour of code already in net, I think it qualifies as a bug fix.
