We know ipoib_flush_paths() is called from plain process context with
interrupts enabled, since it does wait_for_completion(). So there's
no need to use spin_lock_irqsave() -- spin_lock_irq() is fine.

The PCI spec recommends against drivers playing with a device's PCI
read burst size, and says that systems software should configure it.
And we actually have users that report that changing it from the
default set by BIOS hurts performance and/or stability for them. On
the other hand, the Mellanox Programmer's Reference Manual recommends
turning it up all the way to the maximum value. Some tests conducted
here in the lab do not show performance improvement from this tuning,
but this might be just me.
As a work-around, make this tuning an option, off by default (safe
value), with an eye towards removing it completely one day if no one
complains.

Make IPoIB's send and receive queue sizes tunable via module
parameters ("send_queue_size" and "recv_queue_size"). This allows the
queue sizes to be enlarged to fix disastrously bad performance on some
platforms and workloads, without bloating memory usage when large
queues aren't needed.

ipoib_mcast_restart_task() might free an mcast object while a join
request is still outstanding, leading to an oops when the query
completes. Fix this by waiting for query to complete, similar to what
ipoib_stop_thread() is doing. The wait for mcast completion code is
consolidated in wait_for_mcast_join().

Push translation of static rate to HCA format into low-level drivers,
where it belongs. For static rate encoding, use encoding of rate
field from IB standard PathRecord, with addition of value 0, for
backwards compatibility with current usage. The changes are:
- Add enum ib_rate to midlayer includes.
- Get rid of static rate translation in IPoIB; just use static rate
directly from Path and MulticastGroup records.
- Update mthca driver to translate absolute static rate into the
format used by hardware. This also fixes mthca's static rate
handling for HCAs that are capable of 4X DDR.

This fixes the problem of an oops occuring when a user attempts to add a
key to a non-keyring key [CVE-2006-1522].
The problem is that __keyring_search_one() doesn't check that the
keyring it's been given is actually a keyring.
I've fixed this problem by:
(1) declaring that caller of __keyring_search_one() must guarantee that
the keyring is a keyring; and
(2) making key_create_or_update() check that the keyring is a keyring,
and return -ENOTDIR if it isn't.
This can be tested by:
keyctl add user b b `keyctl add user a a @s`

add optional input and output offsets to sys_splice(), for seekable file
descriptors:
asmlinkage long sys_splice(int fd_in, loff_t __user *off_in,
int fd_out, loff_t __user *off_out,
size_t len, unsigned int flags);
semantics are straightforward: f_pos will be updated with the offset
provided by user-space, before the splice transfer is about to begin.
Providing a NULL offset pointer means the existing f_pos will be used
(and updated in situ). Providing an offset for a pipe results in
-ESPIPE. Providing an invalid offset pointer results in -EFAULT.

separate out the 'internal pipe object' abstraction, and make it
usable to splice. This cleans up and fixes several aspects of the
internal splice APIs and the pipe code:
- pipes: the allocation and freeing of pipe_inode_info is now more symmetric
and more streamlined with existing kernel practices.
- splice: small micro-optimization: less pointer dereferencing in splice
methods

Speed up SRAM read and write functions if possible by using MMIO
instead of config. cycles. With this change, the post reset signature
done at the end of D3 power change must now be moved before the D3
power change.
IBM reported a problem on powerpc blades during ethtool self test that
was caused by the memory test taking excessively long. Config. cycles
are very slow on powerpc and the memory test can take more than 10
seconds to complete using config. cycles.
David Miller informed me that an earlier version of the patch caused
problems on sparc64 systems with built-in tg3 chips. This version
fixes the problem by excluding all SUN built-in tg3 chips from doing
MMIO SRAM access.
TG3_FLAG_EEPROM_WRITE_PROT is also set unconditionally when
TG3_FLG2_SUN_570X is set. This should be sane as all SUN chips are
built-in and do not require Vaux switching.

This patch integrates the smcinit code into the smsc-ircc driver.
Some laptops have their smsc-ircc chip not properly configured by the
BIOS and needs some preconfiguration. Currently, this can be done from
userspace with smcinit, a utility that comes with the irda-utils
package. It messes with ioports and PCI settings, from userspace. Now
with this patch, if we happen to be on one of the known to be faulty
laptops, we preconfigure the chip from the driver.
