2013-06-24sh_eth: fix unhandled RFE interruptSergei Shtylyov
EESR.RFE (receive FIFO overflow) interrupt is enabled by the driver on all SoCs and sh_eth_error() handles it but it's not present in any initializer/assignment of the 'eesr_err_check' field of 'struct sh_eth_cpu_data'. This leads to that interrupt not being handled and cleared, and finally to disabling IRQ and the driver being non-functional. Modify DEFAULT_EESR_ERR_CHECK macro and all explicit initializers of the above mentioned field to contain the EESR.RFE bit. Remove useless backslashes from the initializers, while at it.

2013-06-24cifs: update the default global_secflags to include "raw" NTLMv2Jeff Layton
Before this patchset, the global_secflags could only offer up a single sectype. With the new set though we have the ability to allow different sectypes since we sort out the one to use after talking to the server. Change the global_secflags to allow NTLMSSP or NTLMv2 by default. If the server sets the extended security bit in the Negotiate response, then we'll use NTLMSSP. If it doesn't then we'll use raw NTLMv2. Mounting a LANMAN server will still require a sec= option by default.

2013-06-24move sectype to the cifs_ses instead of TCP_Server_InfoJeff Layton
Now that we track what sort of NEGOTIATE response was received, stop mandating that every session on a socket use the same type of auth. Push that decision out into the session setup code, and make the sectype a per-session property. This should allow us to mix multiple sectypes on a socket as long as they are compatible with the NEGOTIATE response. With this too, we can now eliminate the ses->secFlg field since that info is redundant and harder to work with than a securityEnum.

2013-06-24cifs: track the enablement of signing in the TCP_Server_InfoJeff Layton
Currently, we determine this according to flags in the sec_mode, flags in the global_secflags and via other methods. That makes the semantics very hard to follow and there are corner cases where we don't handle this correctly. Add a new bool to the TCP_Server_Info that acts as a simple flag to tell us whether signing is enabled on this connection or not, and fix up the places that need to determine this to use that flag. This is a bit weird for the SMB2 case, where signing is per-session. SMB2 needs work in this area already though. The existing SMB2 code has similar logic to what we're using here, so there should be no real change in behavior. These changes should make it easier to implement per-session signing in the future though.

Track what sort of NEGOTIATE response we get from the server, as that will govern what sort of authentication types this socket will support. There are three possibilities: LANMAN: server sent legacy LANMAN-type response UNENCAP: server sent a newer-style response, but extended security bit wasn't set.

The length of the registers area for the Marvell 370/XP Ethernet controller was incorrect in the .dtsi: 0x2500, while it should have been 0x4000.

2013-06-23perf: Drop sample rate when sampling is too slowDave Hansen
This patch keeps track of how long perf's NMI handler is taking, and also calculates how many samples perf can take a second. If the sample length times the expected max number of samples exceeds a configurable threshold, it drops the sample rate. This way, we don't have a runaway sampling process eating up the CPU. This patch can tend to drop the sample rate down to level where perf doesn't work very well. *BUT* the alternative is that my system hangs because it spends all of its time handling NMIs. I'll take a busted performance tool over an entire system that's busted and undebuggable any day. BTW, my suspicion is that there's still an underlying bug here. Using the HPET instead of the TSC is definitely a contributing factor, but I suspect there are some other things going on. But, I can't go dig down on a bug like that with my machine hanging all the time.
