The Intel Lightning Peak devices do not come with Bluetooth firmware
loaded and thus require a full download of the operational Bluetooth
firmware when the device is attached via the Bluetooth line discipline.
Lightning Peak devices start with a bootloader mode that only accepts
a very limited set of HCI commands. The supported commands are enough
to identify the hardware and select the right firmware to load.

This patch introduces suspend and resume callbacks to mac802154. When
doing suspend we calling the stop driver callback which should stop the
receiving of frames. A transceiver should go into low-power mode then.
Calling resume will call the start driver callback, which starts receiving
again and allow to transmit frames.
This was tested only with the fakelb driver and a qemu vm by doing the
following commands:
echo "devices" > /sys/power/pm_test
echo "freeze" > /sys/power/state
while doing some high traffic between two fakelb phys.

It then adds a new Multi-function mode [BD] which requires this FW in

The driver is written as if it can adapt to a low memory situation allocating
less RX skbs and TX aligned buffers than the respective RX/TX ring sizes. In
reality though the driver would malfunction in this case. Stop being overly
smart and just fail in such situation -- this is achieved by moving the memory
allocation from ravb_ring_format() to ravb_ring_init().
We leave dma_map_single() calls in place but make their failure non-fatal

flow->stats[node].

sfc: support for cascaded multicast filtering
Recent versions of firmware for SFC9100 adapters add support for filter
chaining, in which packets matching multiple filters are delivered to all
filters' recipients, rather than only the highest match-priority filter as was
previously the case.
This patch series enables this feature and redesigns the filter handling code
to make use of it; in particular, subscribing to a multicast address on one
function no longer prevents traffic to that address reaching another function
which is in promiscuous or allmulti mode.
If the firmware does not support filter chaining, the driver will fall back to
the old behaviour.

If the workaround to support cascaded multicast filters ("workaround_26807") is
enabled, the broadcast filter and individual multicast filters are not inserted
when in promiscuous or allmulti mode.
There is a race while inserting and removing filters when entering and leaving
promiscuous mode. When changing promiscuous state with cascaded multicast
filters, the old multicast filters are removed before inserting the new filters
to avoid duplicating packets; this can lead to dropped packets until all
filters have been inserted.
The efx_nic:mc_promisc flag is added to record the presence of a multicast
promiscuous filter; this gives a simple way to tell if the promiscuous state is
changing.

If a function is in promiscuous mode and another function has a broadcast or

Most notably this breaks broadcast, which means ARP doesn't work. Less

When enabling the workaround for cascaded multicast filters, the MC

In that case, the workaround has been enabled, but print an info

As other functions were reset, the MC will have incremented its boot

To check whether the load should take the fast path or not, the code
would check that (r_skb_hlen - load_order) is greater than the offset
of the access using an "Unsigned higher or same" condition. For
halfword accesses and an skb length of 1 at offset 0, that test is
valid, as we end up comparing 0xffffffff(-1) and 0, so the fast path
is taken and the filter allows the load to wrongly succeed. A similar
issue exists for word loads at offset 0 and an skb length of less than
4.
Fix that by using the condition "Signed greater than or equal"
condition for the fast path code for load orders greater than 0.
