25805dcf9d network drivers: eliminate unneeded kill_vid code
Many drivers had code that did kill_vid, but they weren't doing vlan
filtering. With new API the stub is unneeded unless device sets
NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_FILTER.

Bad habit: I couldn't resist fixing a couple of nearby style things
in acenic, and forcedeth.

1371fa6db0 r8169: fix suspend/resume for down interface
The PM hooks are no-op if the r8169 interface is down (i.e. !IFF_UP).
However, as the chipset is enabled, the device will not work after a
suspend/resume cycle. The patch always issue the required PCI suspend
sequence and removes the module unload/reload workaround.

99f252b097 r8169: issue request_irq after the private data are completely initialized
The irq handler schedules a NAPI poll request unconditionally as soon as

5c15bdec5c [VLAN]: Avoid a 4-order allocation.
This patch splits the vlan_group struct into a multi-allocated struct. On
x86_64, the size of the original struct is a little more than 32KB, causing
a 4-order allocation, which is prune to problems caused by buddy-system
external fragmentation conditions.

I couldn't just use vmalloc() because vfree() cannot be called in the
softirq context of the RCU callback.

209ad53bc1 Revert "r8169: mac address change support"
This reverts commit a2b98a697f.

As per Guennadi Liakhovetski, the mac address change support code breaks
some normal uses (_without_ any address changes), and until it's all
sorted out, we're better off without it.

Says Francois:

  "Go revert it.

   Despite what I claimed, I can not find a third-party confirmation by
   email that it works elsewhere.

   It would probably be enough to remove the call to
   __rtl8169_set_mac_addr() in rtl8169_hw_start() though."

7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

b39fe41f48 r8169: quirk for the 8110sb on arm platform
Inverting the write ordering of the TxDescAddr{High/Low} registers
suffices to trigger a sabbat of PCI errors which make the device
completely dysfunctional. The issue has not been reported on a

Switching from MMIO accesses to I/O ones as done in Realtek's
own driver fixes (papers over ?) the bug as well but I am not
thrilled to see everyone pay the I/O price for an obscure bug.

This is the minimal change to handle the issue.

bcf0bf90cd r8169: sync with vendor's driver
- add several PCI ID for the PCI-E adapters ;
- new identification strings ;
- the RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_ defines have been renamed to closely match the
  out-of-tree driver. It makes the comparison less hairy ;
- various magic ;
- the PCI region for the device with PCI ID 0x8136 is guessed.
  Explanation: the in-kernel Linux driver is written to allow MM register
  accesses and avoid the IO tax. The relevant BAR register was found at
  base address 1 for the plain-old PCI 8169. User reported lspci show that
  it is found at base address 2 for the new Gigabit PCI-E 816{8/9}.

          ^^^^^^^^
  So far I have not received any lspci report for the 0x8136 and
  Realtek's driver do not help: be it under BSD or Linux, their r1000 driver
  include a USE_IO_SPACE #define but the bar address is always hardcoded
  to 1 in the MM case. :o/
- the 8168 has been reported to require an extra alignment for its receive

7967168cef [NET]: Merge TSO/UFO fields in sk_buff
Having separate fields in sk_buff for TSO/UFO (tso_size/ufo_size) is not
going to scale if we add any more segmentation methods (e.g., DCCP).  So
let's merge them.

They were used to tell the protocol of a packet.  This function has been
subsumed by the new gso_type field.  This is essentially a set of netdev
feature bits (shifted by 16 bits) that are required to process a specific
skb.  As such it's easy to tell whether a given device can process a GSO
skb: you just have to and the gso_type field and the netdev's features
field.

I've made gso_type a conjunction.  The idea is that you have a base type
(e.g., SKB_GSO_TCPV4) that can be modified further to support new features.
For example, if we add a hardware TSO type that supports ECN, they would
declare NETIF_F_TSO | NETIF_F_TSO_ECN.  All TSO packets with CWR set would
have a gso_type of SKB_GSO_TCPV4 | SKB_GSO_TCPV4_ECN while all other TSO
packets would be SKB_GSO_TCPV4.  This means that only the CWR packets need
to be emulated in software.

5b057c6b1a [NET]: Avoid allocating skb in skb_pad
First of all it is unnecessary to allocate a new skb in skb_pad since
the existing one is not shared.  More importantly, our hard_start_xmit
interface does not allow a new skb to be allocated since that breaks
requeueing.

This patch uses pskb_expand_head to expand the existing skb and linearize
it if needed.  Actually, someone should sift through every instance of
skb_pad on a non-linear skb as they do not fit the reasons why this was
originally created.

Incidentally, this fixes a minor bug when the skb is cloned (tcpdump,
TCP, etc.).  As it is skb_pad will simply write over a cloned skb.  Because
of the position of the write it is unlikely to cause problems but still
it's best if we don't do it.
