Krishna Kumar 988ade6b8e genetlink: Optimize and one bug fix in genl_generate_id()
1. GENL_MIN_ID is a valid id -> no need to start at
   GENL_MIN_ID + 1.
2. Avoid going through the ids two times: If we start at
   GENL_MIN_ID+1 (*or bigger*) and all ids are over!, the
   code iterates through the list twice (*or lesser*).
3. Simplify code - no need to start at idx=0 which gets
   reset to GENL_MIN_ID.

Patch on net-next-2.6. Reboot test shows that first id
passed to genl_register_family was 16, next two were
GENL_ID_GENERATE and genl_generate_id returned 17 & 18
(user level testing of same code shows expected values
across entire range of MIN/MAX).

Krishna Kumar 93860b08e3 genetlink: Optimize genl_register_family()
genl_register_family() doesn't need to call genl_family_find_byid
when GENL_ID_GENERATE is passed during register.

Patch on net-next-2.6, compile and reboot testing only.

defined in <linux/dst.h> and was the only thing that was

dev_dbg() for debugging output.

Eilon Greenstein b015e3d112 bnx2x: Allowing 0 as initial fairness value
Value of zero was used to disable the fairness mechanism. Though the code
(driver and FW) allowed changing the value at run time, it did not allow to do
that if the mechanism was disabled to begin with.
Fixed the FW to allow turning on and off the mechanism at run time. Fixed the
code to read the value from the chip at the right sequence.
Without this fix, if the initial value was set to zero, traffic could not run on
the interface.

John Bonesio 37ccd92f55 net/fec_mpc52xx: Fix kernel panic on FEC error
The MDIO bus cannot be accessed at interrupt context, but on an FEC
error, the fec_mpc52xx driver reset function also tries to reset the
PHY.  Since the error is detected at IRQ context, and the PHY functions
try to sleep, the kernel ends up panicking.

Resetting the PHY on an FEC error isn't even necessary.  This patch
solves the problem by removing the PHY reset entirely.

Anton Vorontsov e72701acbe net: Fix OF platform drivers coldplug/hotplug when compiled as modules
Some OF platform drivers are missing module device tables, so they won't
load automatically on boot. This patch fixes the issue by adding proper
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macros to the drivers.

Thomas Gleixner deed49fbb6 net: Remove BKL from tun
The lock_kernel/unlock_kernel() in cycle_kernel_lock() which is called
in tun_chr_open() is not serializing against anything and safe to
remove.

tun_chr_fasync() is serialized by get/put_tun() and fasync_helper()
has no dependency on BKL. The modification of tun->flags is racy with
and without the BKL so removing it does not make it worse.

Sriram 0fe7463a35 TI DaVinci EMAC: Clear statistics register properly.
The mechanism to clear the statistics register is dependent
on the status of GMIIEN bit in MAC control register. If the
GMIIEN bit is set, the stats registers are write to decrement.
If the GMIIEN bit is cleared, the stats registers are plain
read/write registers. The stats register clearing operation
must take into account the current state of GMIIEN as it
can be cleared when the interface is brought down.

With existing implementation logic, querying for interface stats
when the interface is down, can corrupt the statistics counters.
This patch examines the GMIIEN bit status in MAC_CONTROL
register before choosing an appropriate mask for clearing stats
registers.
