Another updated spin of the labeled networking patches for 2.6.28.  No new
functionality this time around just some bug fixes, including a particularly
fun one to correct the way we determine if a packet is locally generated or
the result of forwarded traffic.  The previous solution, check to see if
(skb->sk == NULL), did not work in all cases (hint: can be triggered by
certain igmp packets which can be generated by the avahi-daemon, note: the
avahi-daemon appears to be the source of some interesting corner cases).

Since I'm reasonable certain there are no really nasty regressions, I've added sign-offs to all the patches now.  I expect there will probably be another
spin or two to take care of bugs yet to be found and fix other various things
that pop-up (maybe even the Smack stuff if I can find the time)

I'm pulling the git right now, much to the annoyance of one
particular skype user. Snicker. I've only been able to fiddle
around, we'll see how far I get.

but the
patches are in reasonably good shape right now.  I also did a test
merge/compile with the September 2nd linux-next tree and there were no nasty
surprises so I'm also pushing these patches to my lblnet-2.6_next tree which
means you should see them in tomorrow's linux-next tree if all goes well.

Any feedback, comments, or testing is appreciated.  As usual, the patches can
also be found here:

Thanks.
Thank you, you're the one doing the work.
