This patch fixes a bug which unconfigured struct tcf_proto keeps
chaining in tc_ctl_tfilter(), and avoids kernel panic in
cls_cgroup_classify() when we use cls_cgroup.
When we execute 'tc filter add', tcf_proto is allocated, initialized
by classifier's init(), and chained. After it's chained,
tc_ctl_tfilter() calls classifier's change(). When classifier's
change() fails, tc_ctl_tfilter() does not free and keeps tcf_proto.
In addition, cls_cgroup is initialized in change() not in init(). It
accesses unconfigured struct tcf_proto which is chained before
change(), then hits Oops.

e1000: add missing length check to e1000 receive routine
Patch to fix bad length checking in e1000. E1000 by default does two
things:
1) Spans rx descriptors for packets that don't fit into 1 skb on recieve
2) Strips the crc from a frame by subtracting 4 bytes from the length prior to
doing an skb_put
Since the e1000 driver isn't written to support receiving packets that span
multiple rx buffers, it checks the End of Packet bit of every frame, and
discards it if its not set. This places us in a situation where, if we have a
spanning packet, the first part is discarded, but the second part is not (since
it is the end of packet, and it passes the EOP bit test). If the second part of
the frame is small (4 bytes or less), we subtract 4 from it to remove its crc,
underflow the length, and wind up in skb_over_panic, when we try to skb_put a
huge number of bytes into the skb. This amounts to a remote DOS attack through
careful selection of frame size in relation to interface MTU. The fix for this
is already in the e1000e driver, as well as the e1000 sourceforge driver, but no
one ever pushed it to e1000. This is lifted straight from e1000e, and prevents
small frames from causing the underflow described above

address to the SJA1000 register area. According to David Miller,
it's only use is to allow ISA and similar primitive bus devices to
have their I/O ports changed via ifconfig. The virtual address is
now stored in the private data structure of the SJA1000 device and
the callback functions use "struct sja1000_priv" instead of the
unneeded "struct net_device".

tcp: fix loop in ofo handling code and reduce its complexity
Somewhat luckily, I was looking into these parts with very fine
comb because I've made somewhat similar changes on the same
area (conflicts that arose weren't that lucky though). The loop
was very much overengineered recently in commit
915219441d566
(tcp: Use SKB queue and list helpers instead of doing it
by-hand), while it basically just wants to know if there are
skbs after 'skb'.
Also it got broken because skb1 = skb->next got translated into
skb1 = skb1->next (though abstracted) improperly. Note that
'skb1' is pointing to previous sk_buff than skb or NULL if at
head. Two things went wrong:
- We'll kfree 'skb' on the first iteration instead of the
skbuff following 'skb' (it would require required SACK reneging
to recover I think).
- The list head case where 'skb1' is NULL is checked too early
and the loop won't execute whereas it previously did.
Conclusion, mostly revert the recent changes which makes the
cset very messy looking but using proper accessor in the
previous-like version.
The effective changes against the original can be viewed with:

Rx descriptors are fed with the a page buffer bus address + page chunk offset.

bonding: allow bond in mode balance-alb to work properly in bridge -try4.3
[PATCH net-next] bonding: allow bond in mode balance-alb to work properly in bridge -try4.3
(updated)
changes v4.2 -> v4.3
- memcpy the address always, not just in case it differs from master->dev_addr
- compare_ether_addr_64bits() is not used so there is no direct need to make new
header file (I think it would be good to have bond stuff in separate file
anyway).
changes v4.1 -> v4.2
- use skb->pkt_type == PACKET_HOST compare rather then comparing skb dest addr
against skb->dev->dev_addr
The problem is described in following bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=487763
Basically here's what's going on. In every mode, bonding interface uses the same
mac address for all enslaved devices (except fail_over_mac). Only balance-alb
will simultaneously use multiple MAC addresses across different slaves. When you
put this kind of bond device into a bridge it will only add one of mac adresses
into a hash list of mac addresses, say X. This mac address is marked as local.
But this bonding interface also has mac address Y. Now then packet arrives with
destination address Y, this address is not marked as local and the packed looks
like it needs to be forwarded. This packet is then lost which is wrong.
Notice that interfaces can be added and removed from bond while it is in bridge.
***
When the multiple addresses for bridge port approach failed to solve this issue
due to STP I started to think other way to solve this. I returned to previous
solution but tweaked one.
This patch solves the situation in the bonding without touching bridge code.
For every incoming frame to bonding the destination address is compared to
current address of the slave device from which tha packet came. If these two
match destination address is replaced by mac address of the master. This address
is known by bridge so it is delivered properly. Note that the comparsion is not
made directly, it's used skb->pkt_type == PACKET_HOST instead. This is "set"
previously in eth_type_trans().
I experimentally tried that this works as good as searching through the slave
list (v4 of this patch).

wimax/i2400m: usb: fix device reset on autosuspend while not yet idle
When the i2400m is connected to a network, the host interface (USB)
cannot be suspended. For that to happen, the device has to have
negotiated with the basestation to put the link on IDLE state.
If the host tries to put the device in standby while it is connected
but not idle, the device resets, as the driver should not do that.
To avoid triggering that, when the USB susbsytem requires the driver
to autosuspend the device, the driver checks if the device is not yet
idle. If it is not, the request is requested (will be retried again
later on after the autosuspend timeout). At some point the device will
enter idle and the request will succeed (unless of course, there is
network traffic, but at that point, there is no idle neither in the
link or the host interface).

wimax: document why wimax_msg_*() operations can be used in any state
Funcion documentation for wimax_msg_alloc() and wimax_msg_send() needs
to clarify that they can be used in the very early stages of a
wimax_dev lifecycle.

wimax/i2400m: remove redundant readiness checks from i2400m_report_tlv_*()
Functions i2400m_report_tlv*() are only called from
i2400m_report_hook(), called in a workqueue by
i2400m_report_hook_work(). The scheduler checks for device readiness
before scheduling.
Added an extra check for readiness in i2400m_report_hook_work(), which
makes all the checks down the line redundant.
Obviously the device state could change in the middle, but error
handling would take care of that.

wimax/i2400m: allow kernel commands to device to be logged too
By running 'echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/wimax:wmxX/i2400m/trace_msg_from_user',
the driver will echo to user space all the commands being sent to the
device from user space, along with the responses.
However, this only helps with the commands being sent from user space;
with this patch, the trace hook is moved to i2400m_msg_to_dev(), which
is the single access point for running commands to the device (both by
user space and the kernel driver). This allows better debugging by
having a complete stream of commands/acks and reports.

wimax/i2400m: trace commands sent from user space on the "echo" pipe
When commands are sent from user space, trace both the command sent
and the answer received over the "echo" pipe instead of over the
"trace" pipe when command tracing is enabled. As well, when the device
sends a reports/indications, send it over the "echo" pipe.
The "trace" pipe is used by the device to send firmware traces;
gets confusing. Another named pipe makes it easier to split debug
information.

wimax/i2400m: generate fake source MAC address with random_ether_addr()
The WiMAX i2400m driver needs to generate a fake source MAC address to
fake an ethernet header (for destination, the card's MAC is
used). This is the source of the packet, which is the basestation it
came from. The basestation's mac address is not usable for this, as it
uses its own namespace and it is not always available.
Currently the fake source MAC address was being set to all zeros,
which was causing trouble with bridging.
Use random_ether_addr() to generate a proper one that creates no
trouble.

rtl8187: Remove pointless check in rtl8187_rx_cb().
First of all, it exposes the SKB list implementation.
Second of all it's not needed. If we get called here, we
successfully enqueued the URB with the linked SKB and
such a completion only gets called one time on such an
SKB.
