4595691455 Add non-Virtex5 support for LL TEMAC driver
This patch adds support for using the LL TEMAC Ethernet driver on
non-Virtex 5 platforms by adding support for accessing the Soft DMA
registers as if they were memory mapped instead of solely through the
DCR's (available on the Virtex 5).

The patch also updates the driver so that it runs on the MicroBlaze.
The changes were tested on the PowerPC 440, PowerPC 405, and the
MicroBlaze platforms.

789a4a2c61 l2tp: Add support for static unmanaged L2TPv3 tunnels
This patch adds support for static (unmanaged) L2TPv3 tunnels, where
the tunnel socket is created by the kernel rather than being created
by userspace. This means L2TP tunnels and sessions can be created
manually, without needing an L2TP control protocol implemented in
userspace. This might be useful where the user wants a simple ethernet
over IP tunnel.

A patch to iproute2 adds a new command set under "ip l2tp" to make use
of this feature. This will be submitted separately.

0ad6614048 l2tp: Add debugfs files for dumping l2tp debug info
The existing pppol2tp driver exports debug info to
/proc/net/pppol2tp. Rather than adding info to that file for the new
functionality added in this patch series, we add new files in debugfs,
leaving the old /proc file for backwards compatibility (L2TPv2 only).

Currently only one file is provided: l2tp/tunnels, which lists
internal debug info for all l2tp tunnels and sessions. More files may
be added later. The info is for debug and problem analysis only -
userspace apps should use netlink to obtain status about l2tp tunnels
and sessions.

Although debugfs does not support net namespaces, the tunnels and
sessions dumped in l2tp/tunnels are only those in the net namespace of
the process reading the file.

regular Linux networking utilities may be used to configure the

data passed over the interface is carried over an L2TP tunnel.

309795f4be l2tp: Add netlink control API for L2TP
In L2TPv3, we need to create/delete/modify/query L2TP tunnel and
session contexts. The number of parameters is significant. So let's
use netlink. Userspace uses this API to control L2TP tunnel/session
contexts in the kernel.

The previous pppol2tp driver was managed using [gs]etsockopt(). This
API is retained for backwards compatibility. Unlike L2TPv2 which
carries only PPP frames, L2TPv3 can carry raw ethernet frames or other
frame types and these do not always have an associated socket
family. Therefore, we need a way to use L2TP sessions that doesn't
require a socket type for each supported frame type. Hence netlink is
used.

e0d4435f93 l2tp: Update PPP-over-L2TP driver to work over L2TPv3
This patch makes changes to the L2TP PPP code for L2TPv3.

The existing code has some assumptions about the L2TP header which are
broken by L2TPv3. Also the sockaddr_pppol2tp structure of the original
code is too small to support the increased size of the L2TPv3 tunnel
and session id, so a new sockaddr_pppol2tpv3 structure is needed. In
the socket calls, the size of this structure is used to tell if the
operation is for L2TPv2 or L2TPv3.

fd558d186d l2tp: Split pppol2tp patch into separate l2tp and ppp parts
This patch splits the pppol2tp driver into separate L2TP and PPP parts
to prepare for L2TPv3 support. In L2TPv3, protocols other than PPP can
be carried, so this split creates a common L2TP core that will handle
the common L2TP bits which protocol support modules such as PPP will
use.

Note that the existing pppol2tp module is split into l2tp_core and
l2tp_ppp by this change.

There are no feature changes here. Internally, however, there are
significant changes, mostly to handle the separation of PPP-specific
data from the L2TP session and to provide hooks in the core for
modules like PPP to access.

8626d3b432 phylib: Support phy module autoloading
We don't use the normal hotplug mechanism because it doesn't work. It will
load the module some time after the device appears, but that's not good
enough for us -- we need the driver loaded _immediately_ because otherwise
the NIC driver may just abort and then the phy 'device' goes away.

[bwh: s/phy/mdio/ in module alias, kerneldoc for struct mdio_device_id]
