40aecb1b13 tipc: Message rejection rework preparatory changes
This patch defines a few new message header manipulation routines,
and generalizes the usefulness of another, in preparation for upcoming
rework of TIPC's message rejection code.

bd7845337b tipc: Expand link sequence gap field to 13 bits
This patch increases the "sequence gap" field of the LINK_PROTOCOL
message header from 8 bits to 13 bits (utilizing 5 previously
unused 0 bits).  This ensures that the field is big enough to
indicate the loss of up to 8191 consecutive messages on the link,
thereby accommodating the current worst-case scenario of 4000
lost messages.

- the interface that received a message is now identified without

a686e6859e tipc: Fix minor bugs in link session number handling
This patch introduces a new, out-of-range value to indicate that
a link endpoint does not have an existing session established
with its peer, eliminating the risk that the previously used
"invalid session number" value (i.e. zero) might eventually be
assigned as a valid session number and cause incorrect link
behavior.

The patch also introduces explicit bit masking when assigning a
new link session number to ensure it does not exceed 16 bits.

03194379a7 tipc: Fix initialization sequence problems when entering network mode
This patch ensures that TIPC's topology service and configuration
service are shut down before switching into "network mode".  This
ensures that TIPC does not mistakenly try to send unnecessary
"publication withdraw" messages to other nodes before it is fully
initialized for sending off-node messages.  Note that the node's
current network address is now updated only after the two services
are shut down; this ensures that any existing connections to the
topology server are terminated correctly using the old address.

28353e7fad tipc: Consolidate subscriber & subscriber port references
This patch modifies TIPC's network topology service so that it
only requires a single reference table entry per subscriber
connection, rather than two.  This is achieved by letting the
reference to the server port communicating with the subscriber
act as the reference to the subscriber object itself.  (Since
the subscriber cannot exist without its port, and vice versa,
this dual role for the reference is perfectly natural.)  This
consolidation reduces the size of the reference table by 50%
in the default configuration.
