Some cards do not support autoneg. The current code does not prevent the

Firmware provides the autoneg capability information and we just need to
store it in the support_auto_speeds field in bnxt_link_info struct.

The PF can setup a default VLAN for a VF. The default VLAN tag is
automatically inserted and stripped without the knowledge of the
stack running on the VF. The VF driver needs to know that default
VLAN is enabled as VLAN acceleration on the RX side is no longer
supported. Call netdev_update_features() to fix up the VLAN features
as necessary. Also, VLAN strip mode must be enabled to strip out
the default VLAN tag.

net_sched: remove qdisc_is_throttled()
HTB, CBQ and HFSC pay a very high cost updating the qdisc 'throttled'
status that nothing but CBQ seems to use.
CBQ usage is flaky anyway, since no qdisc ->enqueue() updates the
'throttled' qdisc status.
This looks like some 'optimization' that actually cost more than code
without the optimization, and might cause latency issues with CBQ.
In my tests, I could achieve a 8 % performance increase in TCP_RR
workload through HTB qdisc, in presence of throttled classes,
and 5 % without throttled classes.

__QDISC_STATE_THROTTLED bit manipulation is rather expensive
for HTB and few others.
I already removed it for sch_fq in commit f2600cf02b
("net: sched: avoid costly atomic operation in fq_dequeue()")
and so far nobody complained.
When one ore more packets are stuck in one or more throttled
HTB class, a htb dequeue() performs two atomic operations
to clear/set __QDISC_STATE_THROTTLED bit, while root qdisc
lock is held.
Removing this pair of atomic operations bring me a 8 % performance
increase on 200 TCP_RR tests, in presence of throttled classes.
This patch has no side effect, since nothing actually uses
disc_is_throttled() anymore.

Add MDIO bus multiplexer support for iProc SoCs
Broadcom iProc based SoCs use a MDIO bus multiplexer where child buses
could be internal as well external to SoCs. These buses could supports
MDIO transaction compatible to C-22/C-45.
Broadcom MDIO bus multiplexer is an integrated multiplexer where child bus
selection and mdio transaction logic lies inside multiplexer itself.
To accommodate this multiplexer in existing mux framework below changes
were required-
1. Passed MDIO parent bus via mdio_mux_init to MDIO mux framework.
This patch set includes MDIO bus multiplexer driver along with above
framework change. It includes one external bus node having Ethernet PHY
attached and two internal bus node holding PCIe PHYs.
This patch series is based on v4.7-rc1 and is available from github-
repo: https://github.com/Broadcom/arm64-linux.git
branch:mdio-mux-v5
-Changes from v4:
- disabled PCIe PHYs from dtsi and enabled in dts file.
-Changes from v3:
- Unregister and free the parent MDIO bus.
- rebased on net-next/master branch.
Reason for resend:
-Rebased on v4.7-rc1
Changes from v2:
-Addressed Rob's comments in this patch regarding typo/grammers.
-Addressed David's comments regarding local variables order.
-Removed property "mdio-integrated-mux" and used mdiobus_register()
in place of of_mdiobus_regsiter().
-removed usage of IS_ERR_OR_NULL to IS_ERR in PCIe PHY driver.
Changes from v1:
- stop using "brcm,is_c45" from bus node as suggested by Andrew. MDIO
PHY driver will logically OR MII_ADDR_C45 into the address when issues
any C45 MDIO read/write transaction.

Add support for JMP_CALL_X (tail call) introduced by commit 04fd61ab36
("bpf: allow bpf programs to tail-call other bpf programs").
bpf_tail_call() arguments:
ctx - context pointer passed to next program
array - pointer to map which type is BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY
index - index inside array that selects specific program to run
In this implementation arm64 JIT jumps into callee program after prologue,
so callee program reuses the same stack. For tail_call_cnt, we use the
callee-saved R26 (which was already saved/restored but previously unused
by JIT).
With this patch a tail call generates the following code on arm64:
if (index >= array->map.max_entries)
goto out;
34: mov x10, #0x10 // #16
38: ldr w10, [x1,x10]

Limit the socket incoming call backlog queue size so that a remote client
can't pump in sufficient new calls that the server runs out of memory. Note
that this is partially theoretical at the moment since whilst the number of
calls is limited, the number of packets trying to set up new calls is not.
This will be addressed in a later patch.
If the caller of listen() specifies a backlog INT_MAX, then they get the
current maximum; anything else greater than max_backlog or anything
negative incurs EINVAL.
The limit on the maximum queue size can be set by:
echo N >/proc/sys/net/rxrpc/max_backlog
where 4<=N<=32.
Further, set the default backlog to 0, requiring listen() to be called
before we start actually queueing new calls. Whilst this kind of is a
change in the UAPI, the caller can't actually *accept* new calls anyway
unless they've first called listen() to put the socket into the LISTENING
state - thus the aforementioned new calls would otherwise just sit there,
eating up kernel memory. (Note that sockets that don't have a non-zero
service ID bound don't get incoming calls anyway.)
Given that the default backlog is now 0, make the AFS filesystem call
kernel_listen() to set the maximum backlog for itself.
Possible improvements include:
(1) Trimming a too-large backlog to max_backlog when listen is called.
(2) Trimming the backlog value whenever the value is used so that changes
to max_backlog are applied to an open socket automatically. Note that
