df98a49670 b43: fix two warnings
My gcc appears to be able to see past the function
boundary and notices that the variable 'behaviour'
could be used uninitialised:

drivers/net/wireless/b43/leds.c: In function ‘b43_leds_register’:
drivers/net/wireless/b43/leds.c:339: warning: ‘behaviour’ may be used uninitialized in this function
drivers/net/wireless/b43/leds.c: In function ‘b43_leds_init’:
drivers/net/wireless/b43/leds.c:262: warning: ‘behaviour’ may be used uninitialized in this function

because b43_led_get_sprominfo() didn't initialise
it in all cases.

52ce3e9a7d ipw2100: fix rebooting hang with driver loaded
Add PCI .shutdown method so that we can disable the device during
shutdown or reboot. Without this, the reboot doesn't work well on
some platforms.

This fixes http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2124

914828fad0 mac80211: Fix TX status reporting for injected data frames
An earlier optimization on removing unnecessary traffic on cooked
monitor interfaces ("mac80211: reduce the amount of unnecessary traffic
on cooked monitor interfaces ") ended up removing quite a bit more
than just unnecessary traffic. It was not supposed to remove TX status
reporting for injected frames, but ended up doing it by checking the
injected flag in skb->cb only after that field had been cleared with
memset.. Fix this by taking a local copy of the injected flag before
skb->cb is cleared.

This broke user space applications that depend on getting TX status
notifications for injected data frames. For example, STA inactivity
poll from hostapd did not work and ended up kicking out stations even
if they were still present.

for driver without commit handler. The fix is pretty simple, see

event generation for simple SET (iwpoint-less ?) is done properly,

316a4d966c b43legacy: avoid PPC fault during resume
For PPC architecture with PHY Revision < 3, a read of the register
B43_MMIO_HWENABLED_LO will cause a CPU fault unless b43legacy_status()
returns a value of 2 (B43legacy_STAT_STARTED); however, one finds that
the driver is unable to associate after resuming from hibernation unless
this routine returns 1. To satisfy both conditions, the routine is rewritten
to return TRUE whenever b43legacy_status() returns a value < 2.

This patch fixes the second problem listed in the postings for Red Hat
Bugzilla #538523.

c2ff581aca b43: avoid PPC fault during resume
The routine b43_is_hw_radio_enabled() has long been a problem.
For PPC architecture with PHY Revision < 3, a read of the register
B43_MMIO_HWENABLED_LO will cause a CPU fault unless b43_status()
returns a value of 2 (B43_STAT_STARTED) (BUG 14181). Fixing that
results in Bug 14538 in which the driver is unable to reassociate
after resuming from hibernation because b43_status() returns 0.

The correct fix would be to determine why the status is 0; however,
I have not yet found why that happens. The correct value is found for
my device, which has PHY revision >= 3.

Returning TRUE when the PHY revision < 3 and b43_status() returns 0 fixes
the regression for 2.6.32.

This patch fixes the problem in Red Hat Bugzilla #538523.

47e1c32306 tcp: fix a timewait refcnt race
After TCP RCU conversion, tw->tw_refcnt should not be set to 1 in
inet_twsk_alloc(). It allows a RCU reader to get this timewait socket,
while we not yet stabilized it.

Only choice we have is to set tw_refcnt to 0 in inet_twsk_alloc(),
then atomic_add() it later, once everything is done.

Location of this atomic_add() is tricky, because we dont want another
writer to find this timewait in ehash, while tw_refcnt is still zero !

Thanks to Kapil Dakhane tests and reports.

13475a30b6 tcp: connect() race with timewait reuse
Its currently possible that several threads issuing a connect() find
the same timewait socket and try to reuse it, leading to list
corruptions.

Condition for bug is that these threads bound their socket on same
address/port of to-be-find timewait socket, and connected to same
target. (SO_REUSEADDR needed)

To fix this problem, we could unhash timewait socket while holding
ehash lock, to make sure lookups/changes will be serialized. Only
first thread finds the timewait socket, other ones find the
established socket and return an EADDRNOTAVAIL error.

This second version takes into account Evgeniy's review and makes sure
inet_twsk_put() is called outside of locked sections.

9b471446cb ixgbe: use EIAM to automask MSI-X
when disabling interrupts, driver was writing with IO, this is no
necessary because on ixgbe parts the hardware can "oneshot"
disable and clear the interrupt.  So on 82598/82599 use of EIAM
should avoid one posted write per interrupt when in MSI-X mode.
This should improve performance and seems to in my limited
testing, reduce CPU utilization VERY slightly.

b099ce2602 net: Batch inet_twsk_purge
This function walks the whole hashtable so there is no point in
passing it a network namespace.  Instead I purge all timewait
sockets from dead network namespaces that I find.  If the namespace
is one of the once I am trying to purge I am guaranteed no new timewait
sockets can be formed so this will get them all.  If the namespace
is one I am not acting for it might form a few more but I will
call inet_twsk_purge again and  shortly to get rid of them.  In
any even if the network namespace is dead timewait sockets are
useless.

Move the calls of inet_twsk_purge into batch_exit routines so
that if I am killing a bunch of namespaces at once I will just
call inet_twsk_purge once and save a lot of redundant unnecessary
work.

My simple 4k network namespace exit test the cleanup time dropped from
roughly 8.2s to 1.6s.  While the time spent running inet_twsk_purge fell
to about 2ms.  1ms for ipv4 and 1ms for ipv6.

575f4cd5a5 net: Use rcu lookups in inet_twsk_purge.
While we are looking up entries to free there is no reason to take
the lock in inet_twsk_purge.  We have to drop locks and restart
occassionally anyway so adding a few more in case we get on the
wrong list because of a timewait move is no big deal.  At the
same time not taking the lock for long periods of time is much
more polite to the rest of the users of the hash table.

In my test configuration of killing 4k network namespaces
this change causes 4k back to back runs of inet_twsk_purge on an
empty hash table to go from roughly 20.7s to 3.3s, and the total
time to destroy 4k network namespaces goes from roughly 44s to
3.3s.

e9c5158ac2 net: Allow fib_rule_unregister to batch
Refactor the code so fib_rules_register always takes a template instead
of the actual fib_rules_ops structure that will be used.  This is
required for network namespace support so 2 out of the 3 callers already
do this, it allows the error handling to be made common, and it allows
fib_rules_unregister to free the template for hte caller.

Modify fib_rules_unregister to use call_rcu instead of syncrhonize_rcu
to allw multiple namespaces to be cleaned up in the same rcu grace
period.

3a765edadb netns: Add an explicit rcu_barrier to unregister_pernet_{device|subsys}
This allows namespace exit methods to batch work that comes requires an
rcu barrier using call_rcu without having to treat the
unregister_pernet_operations cases specially.

d79d792ef9 net: Allow xfrm_user_net_exit to batch efficiently.
xfrm.nlsk is provided by the xfrm_user module and is access via rcu from
other parts of the xfrm code.  Add xfrm.nlsk_stash a copy of xfrm.nlsk that
will never be set to NULL.  This allows the synchronize_net and
netlink_kernel_release to be deferred until a whole batch of xfrm.nlsk sockets
have been set to NULL.

72ad937abd net: Add support for batching network namespace cleanups
- Add exit_list to struct net to support building lists of network
  namespaces to cleanup.

- Add exit_batch to pernet_operations to allow running operations only
  once during a network namespace exit.  Instead of once per network
  namespace.

- Factor opt ops_exit_list and ops_exit_free so the logic with cleanup
  up a network namespace does not need to be duplicated.

8153a10c08 ipv4 05/05: add sysctl to accept packets with local source addresses
commit 8ec1e0ebe26087bfc5c0394ada5feb5758014fc8
Author: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

    ipv4: add sysctl to accept packets with local source addresses

    Change fib_validate_source() to accept packets with a local source address when
    the "accept_local" sysctl is set for the incoming inet device. Combined with the
    previous patches, this allows to communicate between multiple local interfaces
    over the wire.
