the performance patches progress step by step. A few patches already went into the repository the rest is waiting for more review. Thanks to Sven's feedback quite some bugs were squashed.

Changes since v2:

• code rebased on top of the trunk
• some more neigh_node protected by reference counters
• call_rcu and kref_put race condition fixed

Known issues:

• bonding / alternating candidates are not secured by refcounting [see

find_router()] - ideas welcome

Thanks to the bonding / alternating patch I was able to commit the remaining patches that replace the orig_hash spinlock with more advanced locking techniques (revision 1904 - 1909).
