Ursula Braun 3caa4af834 qeth: keep ip-address after LAN_OFFLINE failure
Problem:     If setting of an ip-address fails with LAN_OFFLINE,
             qeth does not save the ip-address in its internal
             list of set ip-addresses. qeth recovers after a
             following STARTLAN event, but cannot set the unsaved
             ip-address.
Solution:    save the ip-address in the qeth-maintained list of
             ip-addresses after a LAN_OFFLINE failure for SETIP.

Ursula Braun 1288372599 qeth: CCL-sequence numbers required for protocol ETH_P_802_2 only
Symptom:     slow CCL response time
Problem:     non-ETH_P_802_2 packets are not delivered to NDH for
             CCL. But CCL detects missing sequence numbers, which
             cause a serious performance problem with CCL.
Solution:    assign sequence numbers only to 802.2 packets.

Ursula Braun 922dc0624e qeth: set lan_online flag after a received STARTLAN
Problem:     A STARTLAN command from the adapter may arrive while a
             qeth recovery is currently running with a failed qeth
             STARTLAN. Usually qeth schedules a recovery when
             receiving a STARTLAN command from the adapter. But
             another recovery scheduled while a recovery is already
             running never starts. Thus the qeth-administered
             lan_online flag remains zero in this scenario, even
             though the adapter-STARTLAN has happened.
Solution:    Set lan_online flag for a received STARTLAN from the
             adapter in case scheduled recovery does not start.

Ursula Braun 2d921c321c qeth: improve ip_list administration after deregister failures
1. ip_list handling after deregister failure of multicast address:
   If error code "MC Address not found" is returned do not re-add
   multicast address to ip_list.
   For other error codes readd multicast address at the end of
   function qeth_delete_all_mc.
2. ip_list handling after deregister failure or normal ip address:
   If error code "IP Address not found" is returned do not re-add
   multicast address to ip list.
   This is especially important in IP address takeover scenarios,
   to enable re-takeover of a taken over IP address.

Julia Lawall 9b3efc0133 [S390]: Fix use of skb after netif_rx
Recently, Wang Chen submitted a patch
(d30f53aeb3) to move a call to netif_rx(skb)
after a subsequent reference to skb, because netif_rx may call kfree_skb on
its argument.  netif_rx_ni calls netif_rx, so the same problem occurs in
the files below.

I have left the updating of dev->last_rx after the calls to netif_rx_ni
because it seems time dependent, but moved the other field updates before.

This was found using the following semantic match.
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)

Christian Borntraeger 0fc3ddd67a [S390] Fix smsgiucv init on no iucv machines
smsgiucv is a driver that relies on iucv to work properly. If
iucv ans smsgiucv are compiled into the kernel and run on an
lpar the following scenario happens:
iucv is initialized early as a subsystem. It checks for z/VM and
returns with EPROTONOTSUPPORT. Later smsgiucv tries to run
driver_register with iucv_bus as bus. As this bus is not
initialized the driver core and list debugging issue several
warnings and oopses.

Solution is to let smsgiucv also check for z/VM and return
EPROTONOTSUPPORT as well.

Klaus D. Wacker bc4b2b497a qeth: HiperSockets layer-3 interface drop non IPv4 or non IPv6 packets
HiperSockets infrastructure (layer-3 mode) supports only IPv4 or
IPv6 packets. Sending other packet types disturbs TCP/IP on z/VM,
which issues messages about invalid packets.
Qeth send routine will detect packet type on sending over a
HiperSockets interface (in layer-3 mode) and drop non IP packets.
The error and drop count of the interface is incremented.

Stephen Hemminger 3b04ddde02 [NET]: Move hardware header operations out of netdevice.
Since hardware header operations are part of the protocol class
not the device instance, make them into a separate object and
save memory.

Ralf Baechle 10d024c1b2 [NET]: Nuke SET_MODULE_OWNER macro.
It's been a useless no-op for long enough in 2.6 so I figured it's time to
remove it.  The number of people that could object because they're
maintaining unified 2.4 and 2.6 drivers is probably rather small.

Klaus D. Wacker 54d0f56e63 qeth: Drop ARP packages on HiperSockets interface with NOARP attribute.
A network interface can get ARP packets even when the interface has
NOARP specified. In a HiperSockets environment this disturbs receiving
systems when packets are sent on the multicast queue. (E.g. TCP/IP on
z/VM issues messages reporting invalid data on the HiperSockets
interface.)
Qeth will no longer send ARP packets on HiperSockets interface when
interface has the NOARP attribute.

Ursula Braun 6e55cab9f0 qeth: provide specific message for OSA-adapters exclusively used
Exclusive usage of OSA-cards has been introduced. Even though Linux
does not make use of it, qeth should be prepared to receive a bad RC
for some initialization steps. A meaningful message is now given,
if an OSA-device is set online, even though the OSA-adapter is already
exclusively used by another host.
