When the lower device's carrier is off, the macvlan devices's

This still works, but unnecessarily tries to turn off the

[IPV6]: Fix ip6_frag ctl
Alexey Dobriyan reported an oops when unsharing the network
indefinitely inside a loop. This is because the ip6_frag is not per
namespace while the ctls are.
That happens at the fragment timer expiration:
inet_frag_secret_rebuild function is called and this one restarts the
timer using the value stored inside the sysctl field.
"mod_timer(&f->secret_timer, now + f->ctl->secret_interval);"
When the network is unshared, ip6_frag.ctl is initialized with the new
sysctl instances, but ip6_frag has only one instance. A race in this
case will appear because f->ctl can be modified during the read access
in the timer callback.
Until the ip6_frag is not per namespace, I discard the assignation to
the ctl field of ip6_frags in ip6_frag_sysctl_init when the network
namespace is not the init net.

Since addition of the rfkill callback, the LED associated with the off

(1) Essential data in the rfkill structure were missing.
(2) The rfkill structure was initialized after the LED initialization.
(3) There was a minor memory leak if the radio LED structure was inited.
Once the above problems were fixed, additional difficulties were noted:
(4) The radio LED was in the wrong state at startup.
(5) The radio switch had to be manipulated twice for each state change.
(6) A circular mutex locking situation existed.
(7) If rfkill-input is built as a module, it is not automatically loaded.
