For the upcoming tpc changes, the driver needs
to provide sensible max output values for each
supported channel.
And while the eeprom always had a output_limit
table, which defines the upper limit for each
frequency and modulation, it was never really
useful for anything... until now.

Bluetooth: /proc/net/ entries for bluetooth protocols
lsof command can tell the type of socket processes are using.
Internal lsof uses inode numbers on socket fs to resolve the type of
sockets. Files under /proc/net/, such as tcp, udp, unix, etc provides
such inode information.
Unfortunately bluetooth related protocols don't provide such inode
information. This patch series introduces /proc/net files for the protocols.
This patch against af_bluetooth.c provides facility to the implementation
of protocols. This patch extends bt_sock_list and introduces two exported
function bt_procfs_init, bt_procfs_cleanup.
The type bt_sock_list is already used in some of implementation of
protocols. bt_procfs_init prepare seq_operations which converts
protocol own bt_sock_list data to protocol own proc entry when the
entry is accessed.
What I, lsof user, need is just inode number of bluetooth
socket. However, people may want more information. The bt_procfs_init
takes a function pointer for customizing the show handler of
seq_operations.

In v5 patch, linux/proc_fs.h is included to use PDE. Build error is

commit 404e0a8b6a55 (net: ipv4: fix RCU races on dst refcounts) tried

We really want to call dst_free() as soon as possible, even if sockets
still have dst in their cache.
dst_release() calls in free_fib_info_rcu() are not welcomed.
Root of the problem was that now we also cache output routes (in
nh_rth_output), we must use call_rcu() instead of call_rcu_bh() in
rt_free(), because output route lookups are done in process context.
Based on feedback and initial patch from David Miller (adding another
call_rcu_bh() call in fib, but it appears it was not the right fix)
