    ms/net: neigh: decrement the family specific qlen
    
    Commit 0ff4eb3d5ebb ("neighbour: make proxy_queue.qlen limit
    per-device") introduced the length counter qlen in struct neigh_parms.
    There are separate neigh_parms instances for IPv4/ARP and IPv6/ND, and
    while the family specific qlen is incremented in pneigh_enqueue(), the
    mentioned commit decrements always the IPv4/ARP specific qlen,
    regardless of the currently processed family, in pneigh_queue_purge()
    and neigh_proxy_process().
    
    As a result, with IPv6/ND, the family specific qlen is only incremented
    (and never decremented) until it exceeds PROXY_QLEN, and then, according
    to the check in pneigh_enqueue(), neighbor solicitations are not
    answered anymore. As an example, this is noted when using the
    subnet-router anycast address to access a Linux router. After a certain
    amount of time (in the observed case, qlen exceeded PROXY_QLEN after two
    days), the Linux router stops answering neighbor solicitations for its
    subnet-router anycast address and effectively becomes unreachable.
    
    Another result with IPv6/ND is that the IPv4/ARP specific qlen is
    decremented more often than incremented. This leads to negative qlen
    values, as a signed integer has been used for the length counter qlen,
    and potentially to an integer overflow.
    
    Fix this by introducing the helper function neigh_parms_qlen_dec(),
    which decrements the family specific qlen. Thereby, make use of the
    existing helper function neigh_get_dev_parms_rcu(), whose definition
    therefore needs to be placed earlier in neighbour.c. Take the family
    member from struct neigh_table to determine the currently processed
    family and appropriately call neigh_parms_qlen_dec() from
    pneigh_queue_purge() and neigh_proxy_process().
    
    Additionally, use an unsigned integer for the length counter qlen.
