f08269d3ec tipc: Increase buffer header to support worst-case device
This patch increases the headroom TIPC reserves in each sk_buff
to accommodate the largest possible link level device header.

fe13dda2d2 [TIPC]: Force linearization of non-linear sk_buffs
This patch allows TIPC to process incoming messages that are
stored in a fragmented sk_buff, by forcing the linearization
of any such messages it receives.

Note: This is an interim solution to allow TIPC to operate with
Ethernet devices that generate non-linear buffers (such as the
gianfar driver), until such time as the rest of TIPC is enhanced
to handle sk_buffs with multiple data areas.

bdc82bee43 [TIPC]: Use fast buffer cloning to improve performance
This patch causes TIPC to allocate fast clonable sk_buffs,
rather than standard ones.  This speeds up the cloning
operation done by the link code each time a message is sent
off-node.

11ecede787 [TIPC]: Remove redundant NULL check when discarding buffers
This patch eliminates a null pointer check when discarding a
TIPC message buffer, since kfree_skb() already handles this
situation.

Acknowledgements to Florian Westphal (fw@strlen.de> for
suggesting this enhancement.

b24b8a247f [NET]: Convert init_timer into setup_timer
Many-many code in the kernel initialized the timer->function
and  timer->data together with calling init_timer(timer). There
is already a helper for this. Use it for networking code.

The patch is HUGE, but makes the code 130 lines shorter
(98 insertions(+), 228 deletions(-)).

a3df92c73b [TIPC]: Remove code bloat introduced by print buffer rework
This patch allows the compiler to optimize out any code that tries to
send debugging output to the null print buffer (TIPC_NULL), a capability
that was unintentionally broken during the recent print buffer rework.

29ede244cc [TIPC]: Debug print buffer enhancements and fixes
This change modifies TIPC's print buffer code as follows:
1) Now supports small print buffers (min. size reduced from 512 bytes to 64)
2) Now uses TIPC_NULL print buffer structure to indicate null device
   instead of NULL pointer (this simplified error handling)
3) Fixed misuse of console buffer structure by tipc_dump()
4) Added and corrected comments in various places

863fae666a [TIPC] Fixed sk_buff panic caused by tipc_link_bundle_buf (REVISED)
The recent change to direct inspection of bundle buffer tailroom did not
account for the possiblity of unrequested tailroom added by skb_alloc(),
thereby allowing a bundle to be created that exceeds the current link MTU.
An additional check now ensures that bundling works correctly no matter
if the bundle buffer is smaller, larger, or equal to the link MTU.
