timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree
over and remove the historical wrapper inlines.

Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary.

<title>slip: make slhc_remember() more robust against malicious packets</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7d3fce8cbe3a70a1c7c06c9b53696be5d5d8dd5c</id>
<content type='text'>
syzbot found that slhc_remember() was missing checks against
malicious packets [1].

slhc_remember() only checked the size of the packet was at least 20,
which is not good enough.

We need to make sure the packet includes the IPv4 and TCP header
that are supposed to be carried.

Add iph and th pointers to make the code more readable.

asm/unaligned.h is always an include of asm-generic/unaligned.h;
might as well move that thing to linux/unaligned.h and include
that - there's nothing arch-specific in that header.

<title>net: annotate writes on dev-&gt;mtu from ndo_change_mtu()</title>

<content type='text'>
Simon reported that ndo_change_mtu() methods were never
updated to use WRITE_ONCE(dev-&gt;mtu, new_mtu) as hinted
in commit 501a90c94510 ("inet: protect against too small
mtu values.")

We read dev-&gt;mtu without holding RTNL in many places,
with READ_ONCE() annotations.

It is time to take care of ndo_change_mtu() methods
to use corresponding WRITE_ONCE()

This makes all those 'char's an explicit 'u8'. This is part of the
continuing unification of chars and flags to be consistent u8.

This approaches tty_port_default_receive_buf().

Note that we do not change signedness as we compile with
-funsigned-char.

Count passed to tty_ldisc_ops::receive_buf*(), ::lookahead_buf(), and
returned from ::receive_buf2() is expected to be size_t. So set it to
size_t to unify with the rest of the code.

<title>drivers: net: slip: fix NPD bug in sl_tx_timeout()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ec4eb8a86ade4d22633e1da2a7d85a846b7d1798</id>
<content type='text'>
When a slip driver is detaching, the slip_close() will act to
cleanup necessary resources and sl-&gt;tty is set to NULL in
slip_close(). Meanwhile, the packet we transmit is blocked,
sl_tx_timeout() will be called. Although slip_close() and
sl_tx_timeout() use sl-&gt;lock to synchronize, we don`t judge
whether sl-&gt;tty equals to NULL in sl_tx_timeout() and the
null pointer dereference bug will happen.

   (Thread 1)                 |      (Thread 2)
                              | slip_close()
                              |   spin_lock_bh(&amp;sl-&gt;lock)
                              |   ...
...                           |   sl-&gt;tty = NULL //(1)
sl_tx_timeout()               |   spin_unlock_bh(&amp;sl-&gt;lock)
  spin_lock(&amp;sl-&gt;lock);       |
  ...                         |   ...
  tty_chars_in_buffer(sl-&gt;tty)|
    if (tty-&gt;ops-&gt;..) //(2)   |
    ...                       |   synchronize_rcu()

We set NULL to sl-&gt;tty in position (1) and dereference sl-&gt;tty
in position (2).

NULL, sl_tx_timeout() will goto out.
