5adfb64bdd Neterion: Driver help file
- vxge driver help text file.

- No change from previous submission.

- Changes in previous submissions -
  Removed the performance tuning section with instructions to disable
  time stamps and change sysctl settings - Reported by Dave Miller
  General clean up.
 - Removed tx/rx_pause, exec_mode, tx_steering_type, rx_steering_type, gro,
   intr_type, rx & tx max_indicate_pkts and exec_mode loadable parameters. The
   driver default settings work well in most if not all cases. Another patch
   to configure these parameters with ethtool will be released in the future -
   Reported by Stephen Hemminger.
- Incorporated following fixes based on comments from Ben Hutchings
        Removed references to earlier kernel versions.
        Removed sections that are similar for all drivers -
                Load/Unload
                Identifying the adapter/interface
                Boot time configuration
        Removed loadable parameter -
                NAPI - Napi is always enabled.
                rx_steering_type & ring_blocks - The driver default settings
                work well in most if not all cases. Another patch to configure
                these parameters with ethtool will be released in the future.
        Removed ethtool support section - No need to duplicate ethtool
                docs here.
        Removed Known Issue on SUSE 9 - Doesn't apply when using a
                current kernel.
        Removed Common Problems section - These don't apply to in-tree modules.
        Removed Available Downloads section - Not sure this belongs in-tree.
        Removed Copyright information - This notice doesn't belong in
                the kernel.

7e765cb4a0 sfc: Call netif_napi_add() before registering our interrupt handler
If we use a shared legacy IRQ then our interrupt handler may be called
as soon as it is registered even though IRQs are disabled on the NIC.
Now that the legacy interrupt handler also checks for event delivery,
it may decide to schedule polling in this case.  Ensure that the NAPI
context is valid but disabled at this point.

424b86a6bc netfilter: xtables: fix IPv6 dependency in the cluster match
This patch fixes a dependency with IPv6:

ERROR: "__ipv6_addr_type" [net/netfilter/xt_cluster.ko] undefined!

This patch adds a function that checks if the higher bits of the
address is 0xFF to identify a multicast address, instead of adding a
dependency due to __ipv6_addr_type(). I came up with this idea after
Patrick McHardy pointed possible problems with runtime module
dependencies.

dcc_ip is treated as a host-endian value in the first printk,
but the second printk uses %pI4 which expects a be32.  This

dust.

2f181855a0 gso: Fix support for linear packets
When GRO/frag_list support was added to GSO, I made an error
which broke the support for segmenting linear GSO packets (GSO
packets are normally non-linear in the payload).

These days most of these packets are constructed by the tun
driver, which prefers to allocate linear memory if possible.
This is fixed in the latest kernel, but for 2.6.29 and earlier
it is still the norm.

Therefore this bug causes failures with GSO when used with tun
in 2.6.29.

8a52c6b4d5 i2c: Adapter timeout is in jiffies
i2c_adapter.timeout is in jiffies. Fix all drivers which thought
otherwise. It didn't really matter as long as the value was only used
inside the driver, but soon i2c-core will use it too so it must have
the proper unit.

Note: for the i2c-mpc driver, this fixes a bug in polling mode.
Timeout would trigger after 1 jiffy, which is most probably not what
the author wanted.

drivers can specify a different (non-zero) value if they wish.

Also express the timeout value in a way which results in the same
duration regarless of the value of HZ.

d2dd14ac18 i2c-nforce2: Add support for MCP67, MCP73, MCP78S and MCP79
The MCP78S and MCP79 appear to be compatible with the previous nForce
chips as far as the SMBus controller is concerned. The MCP67 and MCP73
were not tested yet but I'd be very surprised if they weren't
compatible too.

acec211ca6 i2c: Clarify which clients are auto-removed
The automatic removal of i2c clients only affects the clients which
were created automatically in the first place. Add a comment saying
that to avoid any confusion.

764c16918f i2c: Document the different ways to instantiate i2c devices
On popular demand, here comes some documentation about how to
instantiate i2c devices in the new (standard) i2c device driver
binding model.

I have also clarified how the class bitfield lets driver authors
control which buses are probed in the auto-detect case, and warned
more loudly against the abuse of this method.
