This version of x_tables (ip/ip6/arp) locking uses a per-cpu
recursive lock that can be nested. It is sort of like existing kernel_lock,
rwlock_t and even old 2.4 brlock.

"Reader" is ip/arp/ip6 tables rule processing which runs per-cpu.
It needs to ensure that the rules are not being changed while packet
is being processed.

"Writer" is used in two cases: first is replacing rules in which case
all packets in flight have to be processed before rules are swapped,
then counters are read from the old (stale) info. Second case is where
counters need to be read on the fly, in this case all CPU's are blocked
from further rule processing until values are aggregated.

The idea for this came from an earlier version done by Eric Dumazet.
Locking is done per-cpu, the fast path locks on the current cpu
and updates counters.  This reduces the contention of a
single reader lock (in 2.6.29) without the delay of synchronize_net()
(in 2.6.30-rc2). 

The mutex that was added for 2.6.30 in xt_table is unnecessary since
there already is a mutex for xt[af].mutex that is held.

Changes from earlier patches.
  - function name changes
  - disable bottom half in info_rdlock

These should still be addressed but beyond the scope of the problem
  - lockdep mapping; really a tradeoff between LOCKDEP special clutter
    and clarity
  - Figure out how to stop sparse warning
  - hot plug CPU case, if kernel is built with large # of CPU's, skip
    the inactive ones; migrate values when CPU is removed.
