Commit 44540960 "veth: move loopback logic to common location" introduced
a bug in the packet counters. I don't understand why that happened as it
is not explained in the comments and the mut check in dev_forward_skb
retains the assumption that skb->len is the total length of the packet.
I just measured this emperically by setting up a veth pair between two
noop network namespaces setting and attempting a telnet connection between
the two. I saw three packets in each direction and the byte counters were
exactly 14*3 = 42 bytes high in each direction. I got the actual
packet lengths with tcpdump.
So remove the extra ETH_HLEN from the veth byte count totals.

When I was fixing issues with unregisgtering tables under /proc/sys/net/ipv6/neigh
by adding a mount point it appears I missed a critical ordering issue, in the
ipv6 initialization. I had not realized that ipv6_sysctl_register is called
at the very end of the ipv6 initialization and in particular after we call
neigh_sysctl_register from ndisc_init.
"neigh" needs to be initialized in ipv6_static_sysctl_register which is
the first ipv6 table to initialized, and definitely before ndisc_init.
This removes the weirdness of duplicate tables while still providing a
"neigh" mount point which prevents races in sysctl unregistering.
This was initially reported at https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31232

When the macvlan driver was extended to call unregisgter_netdevice_queue
in 23289a37e2, a use after free of struct
macvlan_port was introduced. The code in dellink relied on unregister_netdevice
actually unregistering the net device so it would be safe to free macvlan_port.
Since unregister_netdevice_queue can just queue up the unregister instead of
performing the unregiser immediately we free the macvlan_port too soon and
then the code in macvlan_stop removes the macaddress for the set of macaddress
to listen for and uses memory that has already been freed.
To fix this add a reference count to track when it is safe to free the macvlan_port
and move the call of macvlan_port_destroy into macvlan_uninit which is guaranteed
to be called after the final macvlan_port_close.

I ran into some trouble while testing the SocketCAN driver for the BOSCH
C_CAN controller. The interface is not correctly initialized, if I put
some CAN traffic on the line, _while_ the interface is being started
(which means: the interface doesn't come up correcty, if there's some RX
traffic while doing 'ifconfig can0 up').
The current implementation enables the controller interrupts _before_
doing the basic c_can configuration. I think, this should be done the
other way round.
The patch below fixes things for me.

The BKL removal in appletalk introduced a use-after-free problem,
where atalk_destroy_socket frees a sock, but we still release

An easy fix is to take an extra reference on the sock and sock_put

commit f3c5c1bfd4 (make ip_tables reentrant) introduced a race in
handling the stackptr restore, at the end of ipt_do_table()
We should do it before the call to xt_info_rdunlock_bh(), or we allow
cpu preemption and another cpu overwrites stackptr of original one.
A second fix is to change the underflow test to check the origptr value
instead of 0 to detect underflow, or else we allow a jump from different

When the OF device driver bits were converted over to the platform
device infrastructure in commit 74888760d4
("dt/net: Eliminate users of of_platform_{,un}register_driver") we
inadvertantly created probing problems in the OF case.
The NIU driver creates a dummy platform device to represent the
board that contains one or more child NIU devices. Unfortunately
we use the same name, "niu", as the OF device driver itself uses.
The result is that we try to probe the dummy "niu" parent device we
create, and since it has a NULL ofdevice pointer etc. everything
explodes:

Turns out this is because in d_obtain_alias if we can't find an alias we create
one and do all the normal instantiation stuff, but we don't do the
security_d_instantiate.
Usually we are protected from getting a hashed dentry that hasn't yet run
security_d_instantiate() by the parent's i_mutex, but obviously this isn't an
option there, so in order to deal with the case that a second thread comes in
and finds our new dentry before we get to run security_d_instantiate(), we go
ahead and call it if we find a dentry already. Eric assures me that this is ok
as the code checks to see if the dentry has been initialized already so calling
security_d_instantiate() against the same dentry multiple times is ok. With
this patch I'm no longer getting errant -EACCESS values.

Make sure the 'match' variable always has a value.
