Setting an invalid mac-address for a qeth layer2 device returns
with a strange error code:
# ip link set hsi1 address 00:00:00:00:00:01
RTNETLINK answers: Unknown error 18446744073709486085
Problem is caused by wrong usage of the return_code field within
structure qeth_ipa_cmd.
With this patch the ip command above returns
SIOCSIFHWADDR: Invalid argument

This patch improves FFDC (first failure data capture) by requesting
a hardware trace in case the device driver, the hardware or a user
detects an error.

Set rx csum default to hw checksumming again.
Remove sysfs interface for rx csum (checksumming) and TSO (large_send).
With the new hw_features it does not work to keep the old sysfs
interface in parallel. Convert options.checksum_type to new hw_features.

Function qeth_l3_arp_query now queries for IPv6 addresses, too, if
QETH_QARP_WITH_IPV6 is passed as parameter to the ioctl. HiperSockets
and GuestLAN in HiperSockets mode provide corresponding entries.

For z/VM guest operating systems, OSX CHPIDs can only be used, if
LPAR and z/VM userID are explicitly authorized through the Service
Element. Issue a message if this SE-authorization is missing.

Isolate data connection to a shared OSA card against other data
connections to the same OSA card. Connectivity between isolated
data connections sharing the same OSA card is therefore possible only
through external network gear (e.g. a router).

z/VM Virtual Switch Port Isolation allows guests on a VLAN UNAWARE
virtual switch to be isolated from other guests on the VSWITCH.
(See z/VM Apars VM64281 and VM64463).
The Linux qeth driver is affected, because it has to handle new
error codes introduced with the z/VM VSWITCH Port Isolation support.

1. ip_list handling after deregister failure of multicast address:
If error code "MC Address not found" is returned do not re-add
multicast address to ip_list.
For other error codes readd multicast address at the end of
function qeth_delete_all_mc.
2. ip_list handling after deregister failure or normal ip address:
If error code "IP Address not found" is returned do not re-add
multicast address to ip list.
This is especially important in IP address takeover scenarios,
to enable re-takeover of a taken over IP address.
