[PATCH net-next 00/19] net: add preliminary netdev refcount tracking

From: Eric Dumazet <redacted>

Two first patches add a generic infrastructure, that will be used
to get tracking of refcount increments/decrements.

The general idea is to be able to precisely pair each decrement with
a corresponding prior increment. Both share a cookie, basically
a pointer to private data storing stack traces.

Then a series of 17 patches converts some dev_hold()/dev_put()
pairs to new hepers : dev_hold_track() and dev_put_track().

Hopefully this will be used by developpers and syzbot to
root cause bugs that cause netdevice dismantles freezes.

With CONFIG_PCPU_DEV_REFCNT=n option, we were able to detect
some class of bugs, but too late (when too many dev_put()
were happening).
