Wei Yang 950e2958a5 be2net: bug fix on returning an invalid nic descriptor
In function be_get_nic_desc(), it will go through the descriptor array
returned from f/w. By comparing the desc_type field, it determines whether
there is a nic descriptor in the array or not. In the case of no nic
descriptor, this function should return NULL.

The code may return an invalide descriptor, when there is no nic descriptor
in the array and the desc_count is less than MAX_RESOURCE_DESC. In this case,
even there is no nic descriptor, it will still return the lase descriptor
since the i doesn't equal to MAX_RESOURCE_DESC.

This patch fix this issue by returning the descriptor when find it and return
NULL for other cases.

Sathya Perla 3f5dffe61a be2net: fix EQ from getting full while cleaning RX CQ
While cleaning RX queues, the CQ DB may be rung several times (with rearm)
while waiting for the flush compl. Each CQ-notify with rearm can result in
an event. The EQ may get full resulting in a HW error.

Fix this by not re-arming the CQ while notifying a valid completion.
Also, there's no need to wait for 1ms after destroying RXQ, as the code in
be_rx_cq_clean() waits for the flush compl to arrive.

The e{uid,gid} --> {uid,gid} credentials fix conflicted with the
cleanup in net-next to now pass cred structs around.

The be2net driver had a bug fix in 'net' that overlapped with the VLAN
interface changes by Patrick McHardy in net-next.

An IGB conflict existed because in 'net' the build_skb() support was
reverted, and in 'net-next' there was a comment style fix within that
code.

Several batman-adv conflicts were resolved by making sure that all
calls to batadv_is_my_mac() are changed to have a new bat_priv first
argument.

Eric Dumazet's TS ECR fix in TCP in 'net' conflicted with the F-RTO
rewrite in 'net-next', mostly overlapping changes.

Thanks to Stephen Rothwell and Antonio Quartulli for help with several
of these merge resolutions.

Craig Hada 2bd92cd2a5 be2net: enable IOMMU pass through for be2net
This patch sets the coherent DMA mask to 64-bit after the be2net driver has
been acknowledged that the system is 64-bit DMA capable. The coherent DMA
mask is examined by the Intel IOMMU driver to determine whether to allow
pass through context mapping for all devices. With this patch, the be2net
driver combined with be2net compatible hardware provides comparable
performance to the case where vt-d is disabled. The main use-case for this
change is to decrease the time necessary to copy virtual machine memory
during KVM live migration instantiations.

This patch was tested on a system that enables the IOMMU in non-coherent
mode. Two DMA remapper issues were encountered in the previous version and
both patches have been committed.

Gavin Shan 66d29cbc59 benet: Wait f/w POST until timeout
While PCI card faces EEH errors, reset (usually hot reset) is
expected to recover from the EEH errors. After EEH core finishes
the reset, the driver callback (be_eeh_reset) is called and wait
the firmware to complete POST successfully. The original code would
return with error once detecting failure during POST stage. That
seems not enough.

The patch forces the driver (be_eeh_reset) to wait the firmware
completes POST until timeout, instead of returning error upon
detection POST failure immediately. Also, it would improve the
reliability of the EEH funtionality of the driver.

Sathya Perla 4c87661629 be2net: fix re-loaded PF driver to re-gain control of its VFs
Currently, when the PF driver is unloaded and re-loaded while VFs are attached
to VMs, it loses control of its VFs.

The PF driver now uses the newly defined/created GET_IFACE_LIST cmd
(available in FW ver >= 4.6) to query the if_id of the VFs
(enabled in its previous life). The PF driver then uses the if_id for
further VF configuration.

The GET_IFACE_MAC_LIST cmd has also implemented in BE3 FW for PF to
query pmac-ids used by its VFs.

David S. Miller 4b87f92259 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Conflicts:
	Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt
	drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnx2x/bnx2x_cmn.c

Both conflicts were simply overlapping context.

A build fix for qlcnic is in here too, simply removing the added
devinit annotations which no longer exist.

Sathya Perla d0b9cec3e2 be2net: fix unconditionally returning IRQ_HANDLED in INTx
commit e49cc34f introduced an unconditional IRQ_HANDLED return in be_intx()
to workaround Lancer and BE2 HW issues. This is bad as it prevents the kernel
from detecting interrupt storms due to broken HW.

The BE2/Lancer HW issues are:
1) In Lancer, there is no means for the driver to detect if the interrupt
belonged to device, other than counting and notifying events.
2) In Lancer de-asserting INTx takes a while, causing the INTx irq handler
to be called multiple times till the de-assert happens.
3) In BE2, we see an occasional interrupt even when EQs are unarmed.

Issue (1) can cause the notified events to be orphaned, if NAPI was already
running.
This patch fixes this issue by scheduling NAPI only if it is not scheduled
already. Doing this also takes care of possible events_get() race that may be
caused due to issue (2) and (3). Also, IRQ_HANDLED is returned only the first
time zero events are detected.
(Thanks Ben H. for the feedback and suggestions.)
