Pass a dscp_t variable to ip_route_input_noref(), instead of a plain
u8, to prevent accidental setting of ECN bits in ->flowi4_tos.
Callers of ip_route_input_noref() to consider are:
* arp_process() in net/ipv4/arp.c. This function sets the tos
parameter to 0, which is already a valid dscp_t value, so it
doesn't need to be adjusted for the new prototype.
* ip_route_input(), which already has a dscp_t variable to pass as
parameter. We just need to remove the inet_dscp_to_dsfield()
conversion.
* ipvlan_l3_rcv(), bpf_lwt_input_reroute(), ip_expire(),
ip_rcv_finish_core(), xfrm4_rcv_encap_finish() and
xfrm4_rcv_encap(), which get the DSCP directly from IPv4 headers
and can simply use the ip4h_dscp() helper.
While there, declare the IPv4 header pointers as const in
ipvlan_l3_rcv() and bpf_lwt_input_reroute().
Also, modify the declaration of ip_route_input_noref() in
include/net/route.h so that it matches the prototype of its
implementation in net/ipv4/route.c.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
