56af326830 mac80211: Support receiving data frames on multiple vifs.
When using multiple STA interfaces on the same radio, some
data packets need to be received on all interfaces
(broadcast, for instance).

Make the STA loop look similar to the mgt-data loop.

Also, add logic to check RX_FLAG_MMIC_ERROR for last
interface in mgt-data loop.

686b9cb994 mac80211/ath9k: Support AMPDU with multiple VIFs.
The old ieee80211_find_sta_by_hw method didn't properly
find VIFS when there was more than one per AP.  This caused
AMPDU logic in ath9k to get the wrong VIF when trying to
account for transmitted SKBs.

This patch changes ieee80211_find_sta_by_hw to take a
localaddr argument to distinguish between VIFs with the
same AP but different local addresses.  The method name
is changed to ieee80211_find_sta_by_ifaddr.

3fd6c88ef8 3c59x: fix regression from patch "Add ethtool WOL support"
This patch (commit 690a1f2002) added a
new call site for acpi_set_WOL() without checking that the function is
actually suitable to be called via

 vortex_set_wol+0xcd/0xe0 [3c59x]
 dev_ethtool+0xa5a/0xb70
 dev_ioctl+0x2e0/0x4b0
 T.961+0x49/0x50
 sock_ioctl+0x47/0x290
 do_vfs_ioctl+0x7f/0x340
 sys_ioctl+0x80/0xa0
 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b

i.e. outside of code paths run when the device is not yet enabled or
already disabled. In particular, putting the device into D3hot is a
pretty bad idea when it was already brought up.

Furthermore, all prior callers of the function made sure they're
actually dealing with a PCI device, while the newly added one didn't.

In the same spirit, the .get_wol handler shouldn't indicate support
for WOL for non-PCI devices.

2cc6d2bf3d ipv6: add a missing unregister_pernet_subsys call
Clean up a missing exit path in the ipv6 module init routines.  In
addrconf_init we call ipv6_addr_label_init which calls register_pernet_subsys
for the ipv6_addr_label_ops structure.  But if module loading fails, or if the
ipv6 module is removed, there is no corresponding unregister_pernet_subsys call,
which leaves a now-bogus address on the pernet_list, leading to oopses in
subsequent registrations.  This patch cleans up both the failed load path and
the unload path.  Tested by myself with good results.

ca9a783575 de2104x: fix TP link detection
Compex FreedomLine 32 PnP-PCI2 cards have only TP and BNC connectors but the
SROM contains AUI port too. When TP loses link, the driver switches to
non-existing AUI port (which reports that carrier is always present).

Connecting TP back generates LinkPass interrupt but de_media_interrupt() is
broken - it only updates the link state of currently connected media, ignoring
the fact that LinkPass and LinkFail bits of MacStatus register belong to the
TP port only (the chip documentation says that).

This patch changes de_media_interrupt() to switch media to TP when link goes
up (and media type is not locked) and also to update the link state only when
the TP port is used.

Also the NonselPortActive (and also SelPortActive) bits of SIAStatus register
need to be cleared (by writing 1) after reading or they're useless.

f064af1e50 net: fix a lockdep splat
We have for each socket :

One spinlock (sk_slock.slock)
One rwlock (sk_callback_lock)

Possible scenarios are :

(A) (this is used in net/sunrpc/xprtsock.c)
read_lock(&sk->sk_callback_lock) (without blocking BH)
<BH>
spin_lock(&sk->sk_slock.slock);
...
read_lock(&sk->sk_callback_lock);
...

(B)
write_lock_bh(&sk->sk_callback_lock)
stuff
write_unlock_bh(&sk->sk_callback_lock)

(C)
spin_lock_bh(&sk->sk_slock)
...
write_lock_bh(&sk->sk_callback_lock)
stuff
write_unlock_bh(&sk->sk_callback_lock)
spin_unlock_bh(&sk->sk_slock)

This (C) case conflicts with (A) :

CPU1 [A]                         CPU2 [C]
read_lock(callback_lock)
<BH>                             spin_lock_bh(slock)
<wait to spin_lock(slock)>
                                 <wait to write_lock_bh(callback_lock)>

We have one problematic (C) use case in inet_csk_listen_stop() :

local_bh_disable();
bh_lock_sock(child); // spin_lock_bh(&sk->sk_slock)
WARN_ON(sock_owned_by_user(child));
...
sock_orphan(child); // write_lock_bh(&sk->sk_callback_lock)

lockdep is not happy with this, as reported by Tetsuo Handa

It seems only way to deal with this is to use read_lock_bh(callbacklock)
everywhere.

Thanks to Jarek for pointing a bug in my first attempt and suggesting
this solution.

59104f0624 ip: take care of last fragment in ip_append_data
While investigating a bit, I found ip_fragment() slow path was taken
because ip_append_data() provides following layout for a send(MTU +
N*(MTU - 20)) syscall :

- one skb with 1500 (mtu) bytes
- N fragments of 1480 (mtu-20) bytes (before adding IP header)
last fragment gets 17 bytes of trail data because of following bit:

	if (datalen == length + fraggap)
		alloclen += rt->dst.trailer_len;

Then esp4 adds 16 bytes of data (while trailer_len is 17... hmm...
another bug ?)

In ip_fragment(), we notice last fragment is too big (1496 + 20) > mtu,
so we take slow path, building another skb chain.

In order to avoid taking slow path, we should correct ip_append_data()
to make sure last fragment has real trail space, under mtu...

ed627be38a airo: remove "basic_rate" module option
The "basic_rate" module option is not implemented correctly.  If the
rate was set to zero it was supposed to set it to "basic_rate | 0x80".
Unfortunately the check to see if what zero was wrong and it checked
"!ai->config.rates" (which is always false) instead of
"!ai->config.rates[i]".

This option was just used for development and it wasn't documented
anywhere.  Instead of fixing it, we can just remove it.

651b52254f mac80211: Add DS Parameter Set into Probe Request on 2.4 GHz
IEEE Std 802.11k-2008 added DS Parameter Set information element into
Probe Request frames as an optional information on 2.4 GHz band (and
mandatory, if radio measurements are enabled). This allows APs to
filter out Probe Request frames that may be received from neighboring
overlapping channels and by doing so, reduce the number of unnecessary
frames in the air. Make mac80211 add this IE into Probe Request frames
whenever the channel is known (i.e., whenever hwscan is not used).

cd87a2d3a3 mac80211: fix use-after-free
commit 8c0c709eea
Author: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>

    mac80211: move cmntr flag out of rx flags

moved the CMTR flag into the skb's status, and
in doing so introduced a use-after-free -- when
the skb has been handed to cooked monitors the
status setting will touch now invalid memory.

Additionally, moving it there has effectively
discarded the optimisation -- since the bit is
only ever set on freed SKBs, and those were a
copy, it could never be checked.

For the current release, fixing this properly
is a bit too involved, so let's just remove the
problematic code and leave userspace with one
copy of each frame for each virtual interface.

338c15e470 e1000: fix occasional panic on unload
Net drivers in general have an issue where timers fired
by mod_timer or work threads with schedule_work are running
outside of the rtnl_lock.

With no other lock protection these routines are vulnerable
to races with driver unload or reset paths.

The longer term solution to this might be a redesign with
safer locks being taken in the driver to guarantee no
reentrance, but for now a safe and effective fix is
to take the rtnl_lock in these routines.

5cf42fcda0 e1000: use work queues
E1000 is using several timers that in a follow on patch
will need to acquire the rtnl_lock in order to be safe.

This patch moves the timer bodies into work queues which
will allow the next patch to add rtnl_lock.

7b872a55c4 e1000/e1000e/igb/ixgb/ixgbe: set NETIF_F_HIGHDMA for VLAN feature flags
If the netdev->features is set with NETIF_F_HIGHDMA, we should set the
corresponding netdev->vlan_features as well to allow VLAN netdev created
on top of the real netdev to be able to also benefit from HIGHDMA on 32bit
system, reducing the performance hit that is caused by __skb_linearize(),
particularly for large send. This is fixed in this patch for all Intel e1000,
e1000e, igb, ixgbe, and ixgbe drivers since this should be beneficial
to all devices supported by these drivers.
