wireguard: device: reset peer src endpoint when netns exits

Each peer's endpoint contains a dst_cache entry that takes a reference
to another netdev. When the containing namespace exits, we take down the
socket and prevent future sockets from being created (by setting
creating_net to NULL), which removes that potential reference on the
netns. However, it doesn't release references to the netns that a netdev
cached in dst_cache might be taking, so the netns still might fail to
exit. Since the socket is gimped anyway, we can simply clear all the
dst_caches (by way of clearing the endpoint src), which will release all
references.

However, the current dst_cache_reset function only releases those
references lazily. But it turns out that all of our usages of
wg_socket_clear_peer_endpoint_src are called from contexts that are not
exactly high-speed or bottle-necked. For example, when there's
connection difficulty, or when userspace is reconfiguring the interface.
And in particular for this patch, when the netns is exiting. So for
those cases, it makes more sense to call dst_release immediately. For
that, we add a small helper function to dst_cache.

This patch also adds a test to netns.sh from Hangbin Liu to ensure this
doesn't regress.

net: core: dst_cache_set_ip6: Rename 'addr' parameter to 'saddr' for consistency

The other dst_cache_{get,set}_ip{4,6} functions, and the doc comment for
dst_cache_set_ip6 use 'saddr' for their source address parameter. Rename
the parameter to increase consistency.

This fixes the following kernel-doc warnings:

./include/net/dst_cache.h:58: warning: Function parameter or member 'addr' not described in 'dst_cache_set_ip6'
./include/net/dst_cache.h:58: warning: Excess function parameter 'saddr' description in 'dst_cache_set_ip6'

net: add dst_cache support

This patch add a generic, lockless dst cache implementation.
The need for lock is avoided updating the dst cache fields
only in per cpu scope, and requiring that the cache manipulation
functions are invoked with the local bh disabled.

The refresh_ts and reset_ts fields are used to ensure the cache
consistency in case of cuncurrent cache update (dst_cache_set*) and
reset operation (dst_cache_reset).

Consider the following scenario:

CPU1: CPU2:
<cache lookup with emtpy cache: it fails>
<get dst via uncached route lookup>
<related configuration changes>
dst_cache_reset()
dst_cache_set()

The dst entry set passed to dst_cache_set() should not be used
for later dst cache lookup, because it's obtained using old
configuration values.

Since the refresh_ts is updated only on dst_cache lookup, the
cached value in the above scenario will be discarded on the next
lookup.
