Since "mac80211: make off-channel work generic" drivers have not been
notified of configuration changes after association or authentication. This
caused more dependence on current state to ensure driver will be notified
when configuration changes occur. One such problem arises if off-channel is
in progress when HT information changes. Since HT is only enabled on the
"oper_channel" the driver will never be notified of this change. Usually
the driver is notified soon after of a BSS information change
(BSS_CHANGED_HT) ... but since the driver did not get a notification that
this is a HT channel the new BSS information does not make sense.
Fix this by also changing the off-channel information when HT is enabled
and thus cause driver to be notified correctly.
This fixes a problem in 4965 when associated with 5GHz 40MHz channel.
Without this patch the system can associate but is unable to transfer any
data, not even ping.

The af_packet protocol is used by Perl to do ioctls as reported by
Stephane Riviere:
"Net::RawIP relies on SIOCGIFADDR et SIOCGIFHWADDR to get the IP and MAC
addresses of the network interface."
But in a new network namespace these ioctl fail because it is disabled for
a namespace different from the init_net_ns.
These two lines should not be there as af_inet and af_packet are
namespace aware since a long time now. I suppose we forget to remove these
lines because we sent the af_packet first, before af_inet was supported.

The following situation was observed in the field:
tap1 sends packets, tap2 does not consume them, as a result
tap1 can not be closed. This happens because
tun/tap devices can hang on to skbs undefinitely.
As noted by Herbert, possible solutions include a timeout followed by a
copy/change of ownership of the skb, or always copying/changing
ownership if we're going into a hostile device.
This patch implements the second approach.
Note: one issue still remaining is that since skbs
keep reference to tun socket and tun socket has a
reference to tun device, we won't flush backlog,
instead simply waiting for all skbs to get transmitted.
At least this is not user-triggerable, and
this was not reported in practice, my assumption is
other devices besides tap complete an skb
within finite time after it has been queued.
A possible solution for the second issue
would not to have socket reference the device,
instead, implement dev->destructor for tun, and
wait for all skbs to complete there, but this
needs some thought, probably too risky for 2.6.34.

The current algorithm will sometimes "detect" that
more chains are enabled than are really present in
the device because, for unknown reasons, the ucode
sends up all-zeroes signal values.
The simplest way of solving this is to restrict the
active chains mask to the chains we know are really
present on the device.
This fixes a bug with some devices where, since sometimes
more chains are enabled than really present, the system would hang.

radix_tree_tag_get() is not safe to use concurrently with radix_tree_tag_set()
or radix_tree_tag_clear(). The problem is that the double tag_get() in
radix_tree_tag_get():
if (!tag_get(node, tag, offset))
saw_unset_tag = 1;
if (height == 1) {
int ret = tag_get(node, tag, offset);
may see the value change due to the action of set/clear. RCU is no protection
against this as no pointers are being changed, no nodes are being replaced
according to a COW protocol - set/clear alter the node directly.
The documentation in linux/radix-tree.h, however, says that
radix_tree_tag_get() is an exception to the rule that "any function modifying
the tree or tags (...) must exclude other modifications, and exclude any
functions reading the tree".
The problem is that the next statement in radix_tree_tag_get() checks that the
tag doesn't vary over time:
BUG_ON(ret && saw_unset_tag);
This has been seen happening in FS-Cache:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-cachefs/2010-April/msg00013.html
To this end, remove the BUG_ON() from radix_tree_tag_get() and note in various
comments that the value of the tag may change whilst the RCU read lock is held,
and thus that the return value of radix_tree_tag_get() may not be relied upon
unless radix_tree_tag_set/clear() and radix_tree_delete() are excluded from
running concurrently with it.

([S390] s390: use change recording override for kernel mapping)
deactivated the change bit recording for the kernel mapping to
improve the performance. This works most of the time, but there
are cases (e.g. kernel runs in home space, futex atomic compare xcmg)
where we modify user memory with the kernel mapping instead of the
user mapping.
Instead of fixing these cases, this patch just deactivates change bit
override to avoid future problems with other kernel code that might
use the kernel mapping for user memory.

If a machine check interrupts the io interrupt handler on one of the
instructions between io_return and io_leave the critical section
cleanup code will move the return psw to io_work_loop. By doing that
the switch from the asynchronous interrupt stack to the process stack
is skipped. If e.g. TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set things break because
the scheduler is called with the asynchronous interrupts stack.
Moving the psw back to io_return instead fixes the problem.

When CFQ dispatches requests forcefully due to a barrier or changing iosched,
it runs through all cfqq's dispatching requests and then expires each queue.
However, it does not activate a cfqq before flushing its IOs resulting in
using stale values for computing slice_used.
This patch fixes it by calling activate queue before flushing reuqests from
each queue.
This is useful mostly for barrier requests because when the iosched is changing
it really doesnt matter if we have incorrect accounting since we're going to
break down all structures anyway.
We also now expire the current timeslice before moving on with the dispatch
to accurately account slice used for that cfqq.
