Ursula Braun 9dc48ccc68 qeth: serialize sysfs-triggered device configurations
This patch serializes device removal and other sysfs-triggered

of the remove functions. And it serializes online/offline setting
and discipline-switching (causing reestablishing of the net_device)
by making use of a new discipline mutex.

Jay Vosburgh 03dc2f4c52 bonding: don't lock when copying/clearing VLAN list on slave
When copying VLAN information to or removing from a slave
during slave addition or removal, the bonding code currently holds
the bond->lock for write to prevent concurrent modification of the
vlan_list / vlgrp.

	This is unnecessary, as all of these operations occur under
RTNL.  Holding the bond->lock also caused might_sleep issues for
some drivers' ndo_vlan_* functions.  This patch removes the extra
locking.

	Problem reported by Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com>

Jay Vosburgh f35188faa0 bonding: change test for presence of VLANs
After commit ad1afb0039
("vlan_dev: VLAN 0 should be treated as "no vlan tag" (802.1p packet)")
it is now regular practice for a VLAN "add vid" for VLAN 0 to
arrive prior to any VLAN registration or creation of a vlan_group.

	This patch updates the bonding code that tests for the presence
of VLANs configured above bonding.  The new logic tests for bond->vlgrp
to determine if a registration has occured, instead of testing that
bonding's internal vlan_list is empty.

	The old code would panic when vlan_list was not empty, but
vlgrp was still NULL (because only an "add vid" for VLAN 0 had occured).

	Bonding still adds VLAN 0 to its internal list so that 802.1p
frames are handled correctly on transmit when non-VLAN accelerated
slaves are members of the bond.  The test against bond->vlan_list
remains in bond_dev_queue_xmit for this reason.

	Modification to the bond->vlgrp now occurs under lock (in
addition to RTNL), because not all inspections of it occur under RTNL.

	Additionally, because 8021q will never issue a "kill vid" for
VLAN 0, there is now logic in bond_uninit to release any remaining
entries from vlan_list.

Michael Chan 11848b9647 bnx2: Remove some unnecessary smp_mb() in tx fast path.
smp_mb() inside bnx2_tx_avail() is used twice in the normal
bnx2_start_xmit() path (see illustration below).  The full memory
barrier is only necessary during race conditions with tx completion.
We can speed up the tx path by replacing smp_mb() in bnx2_tx_avail()
with a compiler barrier.  The compiler barrier is to force the
compiler to fetch the tx_prod and tx_cons from memory.

In the race condition between bnx2_start_xmit() and bnx2_tx_int(),
we have the following situation:

bnx2_start_xmit()                       bnx2_tx_int()
    if (!bnx2_tx_avail())
            BUG();

    ...

    if (!bnx2_tx_avail())
            netif_tx_stop_queue();          update_tx_index();
            smp_mb();                       smp_mb();
            if (bnx2_tx_avail())            if (netif_tx_queue_stopped() &&
                    netif_tx_wake_queue();      bnx2_tx_avail())

With smp_mb() removed from bnx2_tx_avail(), we need to add smp_mb() to
bnx2_start_xmit() as shown above to properly order netif_tx_stop_queue()
and bnx2_tx_avail() to check the ring index.  If it is not strictly
ordered, the tx queue can be stopped forever.

This improves performance by about 5% with 2 ports running bi-directional
64-byte packets.

Yi Zou 5e09d7f630 ixgbe: properly toggling netdev feature flags when disabling FCoE
When FCoE is disabled, there is a race condition that FCoE offload is
turned off but the FCoE protocol driver is still queuing I/O thinking
offload support still exists. This patch toggles off corresponding FCoE
netdev feature flags and notify the FCoE stack first, allowing FCoE
protocol stack driver to update its flags upon NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE so no
I/O will be using offload.

Also, indicate FCoE offload flags in vlan_features in ixgbe_probe once
and do not toggle them in ixgbe_fcoe_enable/disable so when FCoE is
created on the VLAN interface, vlan_transfer_features() would properly
update the VLAN netdev features flag and notify the FCoE protocol driver
for NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE.

Dan Carpenter 0a6efc78c0 arcnet: fix signed bug in probe function
probe_irq_off() returns the first irq found or if two irqs are found
then it returns the negative of the first irq found.  We can cast
dev->irq to an int so that the test for negative values works.

Shreyas Bhatewara 4a1745fc54 net-next: vmxnet3 fixes [3/5] Initialize link state at probe time
This change initializes the state of link at the time when driver is
loaded. The ethtool output for 'link detected' and 'link speed'
is thus valid even before the interface is brought up.

Robert Jennings ee2e6114de ibmveth: lost IRQ while closing/opening device leads to service loss
The order of freeing the IRQ and freeing the device in firmware
in ibmveth_close can cause the adapter to become unusable after a
subsequent ibmveth_open.  Only a reboot of the OS will make the
network device usable again. This is seen when cycling the adapter
up and down while there is network activity.

There is a window where an IRQ will be left unserviced (H_EOI will not
be called).  The solution is to make a VIO_IRQ_DISABLE h_call, free the
device with firmware, and then call free_irq.
