The rndis header is 116 bytes big and can be placed in the default
head room that will be available in the skb. Since the netvsc packet
is less than 48 bytes, we can use the skb control buffer
for the netvsc packet. With these changes we don't need to
ask for additional head room.

Jeff Kirsher says:

====================
Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-12-01

This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only.

Helin adds new fields to i40e_vsi to store user configured RSS config data
and the code to use it.  Also renamed RSS items to clarify functionality
and scope to users.  Fixed a confusing kernel message of enabling RSS size
by reporting it together with the hardware maximum RSS size.

Anjali fixes the issue of forcing writeback too often causing us to not
benefit from NAPI.

Jesse adds a prefetch for data early in the transmit path to help immensely
for pktgen and forwarding workloads.  Fixed the i40e driver that was
possibly sleeping inside critical section of code.

Carolyn fixes an issue where adminq init failures always provided a message
that NVM was newer than expected, when this is not always the case for
init_adminq failures.  Fixed by adding a check for that specific error
condition and a different helpful message otherwise.

Mitch fixes error message by telling the user which VF is being naughty,
rather than making them guess.  Updated the queue_vector array from a
statically-sized member of the adapter structure, to a dynamically-allocated
and -sized array.  This reduces the size of the adapter structure and allows
us to support any number of queue vectors in the future without changing the
code.

The driver was being called by VLAN, bonding, teaming operations
that expected to be able to hold locks like rcu_read_lock().

This causes the driver to be held to the requirement to not sleep,
and was found by the kernel debug options for checking sleep
inside critical section, and the locking validator.

Mitch Williams 0dd438d8ad i40evf: allocate ring structs dynamically
Instead of awkwardly keeping a fixed array of pointers in the adapter
struct and then allocating ring structs individually, just keep a single
pointer and allocate a single blob for the arrays. This simplifies code,
shrinks the adapter structure, and future-proofs the driver by not
limiting the number of rings we can handle.

If, upon a midnight dreary, the PF returns ERR_PARAM when the VF is
requesting resources, that's fatal. Either the firmware or NVM is badly,
badly misconfigured, or this VF has been disabled due to a previous VF
driver sending a bunch of bogus messages.

Either way, there is no recovery from this. Don't ponder weak and weary,
just quit.

Anjali Singhai Jain 6a7fded776 i40e/i40evf: Fix RS bit update in Tx path and disable force WB workaround
This patch fixes the issue of forcing WB too often causing us to not
benefit from NAPI.

Without this patch we were forcing WB/arming interrupt too often taking
away the benefits of NAPI and causing a performance impact.

With this patch we disable force WB in the clean routine for X710
and XL710 adapters. X722 adapters do not enable interrupt to force
a WB and benefit from WB_ON_ITR and hence force WB is left enabled
for those adapters.
For XL710 and X710 adapters if we have less than 4 packets pending
a software Interrupt triggered from service task will force a WB.

This patch also changes the conditions for setting RS bit as described
in code comments. This optimizes when the HW does a tail bump amd when
it does a WB. It also optimizes when we do a wmb.

Arnd Bergmann 6cc5683401 isdn: remove spellcaster driver
The 'sc' ISDN driver relies on using readl() to access ISA I/O memory.
This has been deprecated and produced warnings since linux-2.3.23,
disabled by default since 2.4.10 and finally removed in 2.6.5.

I found this because the compiling the driver for ARM produces
a warning:

In file included from ../drivers/isdn/sc/includes.h:8:0,
                 from ../drivers/isdn/sc/init.c:13:
../arch/arm/include/asm/io.h:115:21: note: expected 'const volatile void *' but argument is of type 'long unsigned int'

It is pretty clear that this driver has not been used for a long time
and there is no point fixing it now, so let's remove it.

Bert Kenward 93171b14a5 sfc: make TSO version a per-queue parameter
The Solarflare 8000 series NIC will use a new TSO scheme. The current
driver refuses to load if the current TSO scheme is not found. Remove
that check and instead make the TSO version a per-queue parameter.

Nikolay Aleksandrov 02fff96a79 net: add support for netdev notifier error injection
This module allows to insert errors in some of netdevice's notifier
events. All network drivers use these notifiers to signal various events
and to check if they are allowed, e.g. PRECHANGEMTU and CHANGEMTU
afterwards. Until recently I had to run failure tests by injecting
a custom module, but now this infrastructure makes it trivial to test
these failure paths. Some of the recent bugs I fixed were found using
this module.
Here's an example:
 $ cd /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/netdev
 $ echo -22 > actions/NETDEV_CHANGEMTU/error
 $ ip link set eth0 mtu 1024
 RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

Vitaly Kuznetsov 27a70af3f4 hv_netvsc: rework link status change handling
There are several issues in hv_netvsc driver with regards to link status
change handling:
- RNDIS_STATUS_NETWORK_CHANGE results in calling userspace helper doing
  '/etc/init.d/network restart' and this is inappropriate and broken for
  many reasons.
- link_watch infrastructure only sends one notification per second and
  in case of e.g. paired disconnect/connect events we get only one
  notification with last status. This makes it impossible to handle such
  situations in userspace.

Redo link status changes handling in the following way:
- Create a list of reconfig events in network device context.
- On a reconfig event add it to the list of events and schedule
  netvsc_link_change().
- In netvsc_link_change() ensure 2-second delay between link status
  changes.
- Handle RNDIS_STATUS_NETWORK_CHANGE as a paired disconnect/connect event.

Rainer Weikusat 77b75f4d8c unix: use wq_has_sleeper in unix_dgram_recvmsg
The current unix_dgram_recvmsg does a wake up for every received
datagram. This seems wasteful as only SOCK_DGRAM client sockets in an
n:1 association with a server socket will ever wait because of the
associated condition. The patch below changes the function such that the
wake up only happens if wq_has_sleeper indicates that someone actually
wants to be notified. Testing with SOCK_SEQPACKET and SOCK_DGRAM socket
seems to confirm that this is an improvment.
