We switched tty refcounting there to the one provided by tty_port
helpers. So tty_port->tty is now protected by tty_port->lock, not by
hso_serial->serial_lock.
Side note: tty->driver_data does not need the lock, so it is needed
neither in open, nor in close paths.

From Eric Dumazet.
12) Once we put a SKB into either the netlink receiver's queue or a

Fixes from Eric Dumazet.
13) PPP has this annoying behavior in that for every transmit call it
immediately stops the TX queue, then calls down into the next layer
to transmit the PPP frame.
But if that next layer can take it immediately, it just un-stops the
TX queue right before returning from the transmit method.
Besides being useless work, it makes several facilities unusable, in
particular things like the equalizers. Well behaved devices should
only stop the TX queue when they really are full, and in PPP's case
when it gets backlogged to the downstream device.
David Woodhouse therefore fixed PPP to not stop the TX queue until
it's downstream can't take data any more.

The driver uses a 2-order allocation, which is too much on architectures
like ppc64, which has a 64KiB page. This particular allocation is used
for large packet fragments that may have a size of 512, 1024, 4096 or
fill the whole allocation. So, a minimum size of 16384 is good enough
and will be the same size that is used in architectures of 4KiB sized
pages.
This will avoid allocation failures that we see when the system is under
stress, but still has plenty of memory, like the one below.
This will also allow us to set the interface MTU to higher values like
9000, which was not possible on ppc64 without this patch.

Modified from original patch from Chris.
The sky2 driver has to have 8 byte alignment of receive buffer
on some chip versions. On architectures which don't support efficient
unaligned access this doesn't work very well. The solution is to
just copy all received packets which is what the driver already
does for small packets.
This allows the driver to be used on the Tilera TILEmpower-Gx, since
the tile architecture doesn't currently handle kernel unaligned accesses,
just userspace.

The current implemenation was buggy for slaves who use ndo_neigh_setup,
since the networking stack invokes the bonding device ndo entry (from
neigh_params_alloc) before any devices are enslaved, and the bonding
driver can't further delegate the call at that point in time. As a
result when bonding IPoIB devices, the neigh_cleanup hasn't been called.
Fix that by deferring the actual call into the slave ndo_neigh_setup
from the time the bonding neigh_setup is called.

Fix up code so that changes in DCB settings
are detected only when ixgbe_dcbnl_set_all is called.
Previously, a series of 'change' commands followed by
a call to ixgbe_dcbnl_set_all() would always be handled
as a HW change - even if the net change was zero.
This patch checks for this case of no actual change and
skips going through the HW set process.
Without this fix, the link could reset and result in
a link flap.
The core change in this patch is to check for changes
in the ixgbe_copy_dcb_cfg() routine - and return
a bitmask of detected changes. The other
places where changes were detected previously can be removed.

For every transmitted packet, ppp_start_xmit() will stop the netdev
queue and then, if appropriate, restart it. This causes the TX softirq
to run, entirely gratuitously.
This is "only" a waste of CPU time in the normal case, but it's actively
harmful when the PPP device is a TEQL slave — the wakeup will cause the
offending device to receive the next TX packet from the TEQL queue, when
it *should* have gone to the next slave in the list. We end up seeing
large bursts of packets on just *one* slave device, rather than using
the full available bandwidth over all slaves.
This patch fixes the problem by *not* unconditionally stopping the queue
in ppp_start_xmit(). It adds a return value from ppp_xmit_process()
which indicates whether the queue should be stopped or not.
It *doesn't* remove the call to netif_wake_queue() from
ppp_xmit_process(), because other code paths (especially from
ppp_output_wakeup()) need it there and it's messy to push it out to the
other callers to do it based on the return value. So we leave it in
place — it's a no-op in the case where the queue wasn't stopped, so it's
harmless in the TX path.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
1) Provide device string properly for USB i2400m wimax devices, also
don't OOPS when providing firmware string. From Phil Sutter.
2) Add support for sh_eth SH7734 chips, from Nobuhiro Iwamatsu.
3) Add another device ID to USB zaurus driver, from Guan Xin.
4) Loop index start in pool vector iterator is wrong causing MAC to not
get configured in bnx2x driver, fix from Dmitry Kravkov.
5) EQL driver assumes HZ=100, fix from Eric Dumazet.
6) Now that skb_add_rx_frag() can specify the truesize increment
separately, do so in f_phonet and cdc_phonet, also from Eric
Dumazet.
7) virtio_net accidently uses net_ratelimit() not only on the kernel
warning but also the statistic bump, fix from Rick Jones.
8) ip_route_input_mc() uses fixed init_net namespace, oops, use
dev_net(dev) instead. Fix from Benjamin LaHaise.
9) dev_forward_skb() needs to clear the incoming interface index of the
SKB so that it looks like a new incoming packet, also from Benjamin
LaHaise.
10) iwlwifi mistakenly initializes a channel entry as 2GHZ instead of
5GHZ, fix from Stanislav Yakovlev.
11) Missing kmalloc() return value checks in orinoco, from Santosh
Nayak.
12) ath9k doesn't check for HT capabilities in the right way, it is
checking ht_supported instead of the ATH9K_HW_CAP_HT flag. Fix from
Sujith Manoharan.
13) Fix x86 BPF JIT emission of 16-bit immediate field of AND
instructions, from Feiran Zhuang.
14) Avoid infinite loop in GARP code when registering sysfs entries.
From David Ward.
15) rose protocol uses memcpy instead of memcmp in a device address
comparison, oops. Fix from Daniel Borkmann.
16) Fix build of lpc_eth due to dev_hw_addr_rancom() interface being
renamed to eth_hw_addr_random(). From Roland Stigge.
17) Make ipv6 RTM_GETROUTE interpret RTA_IIF attribute the same way
that ipv4 does. Fix from Shmulik Ladkani.
18) via-rhine has an inverted bit test, causing suspend/resume
regressions. Fix from Andreas Mohr.
19) RIONET assumes 4K page size, fix from Akinobu Mita.
20) Initialization of imask register in sky2 is buggy, because bits are
"or'd" into an uninitialized local variable. Fix from Lino
Sanfilippo.
21) Fix FCOE checksum offload handling, from Yi Zou.
22) Fix VLAN processing regression in e1000, from Jiri Pirko.

If port 0 of a 5717 serdes device powers down, it hides the phy from
port 1. This patch works around the problem by keeping port 0's phy

Commit dae2e9f430 changed dev_alloc_skb()
to netdev_alloc_skb(), adding a dev pointer, but erroneously used "->"
instead of "." for a struct member when accessing the dev pointer.
This change fixes the build breakage.

Make CDC EEM recalculate the hard_mtu after adjusting the
hard_header_len.
Without this, usbnet adjusts the MTU down to 1494 bytes, and the host is
unable to receive standard 1500-byte frames from the device.
Tested with the Linux USB Ethernet gadget.

rionet_active is allocated from the page allocator and the allocation
order is calculated on the assumption that the page size is 4KB, so it
wastes memory on more than 4K page systems.
