The commit a1ed5b0cffe4b16a93a6a3390e8cee0fbef94f86
(klist: don't iterate over deleted entries) introduces use of the
low bit in a pointer to indicate if the knode is dead or not,
assuming that this bit is always free.
This is not true for all architectures, CRIS for example may align data
on byte borders.
The result is a bunch of warnings on bootup, devices not being
added correctly etc, reported by Hinko Kocevar <hinko.kocevar@cetrtapot.si>:

That works, but we need to do it not for the struct klist_node,
but for the struct we insert into the void * in klist_node,
which is struct klist.

Toralf Förster <toralf.foerster@gmx.de> reported a build failure in
the WiMAX stack when CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=n
http://linuxwimax.org/pipermail/wimax/2009-January/000449.html
This is due to debugfs_create_size_t() missing an stub that returns
-ENODEV when the DEBUGFS subsystem is not configured in (like the rest
of the debugfs API).
This patch adds said stub.

Commit 3ada8b7e ("block: struct device - replace bus_id with dev_name(),
dev_set_name()") deleted the code in register_disk() that changed a '/'
to a '!' in the device name when registering a disk, but dev_set_name()
does not perform this conversion.
This leads to amusing problems with disks that have '/' in their names:
for example a failure to boot with the root partition on a cciss device,
even though the kernel says it knows about the root device:
VFS: Cannot open root device "cciss/c0d0p6" or unknown-block(0,0)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions:
6800 71652960 cciss/c0d0 driver: cciss
6802 1 cciss/c0d0p2
6805 2931831 cciss/c0d0p5
6806 34354908 cciss/c0d0p6
6810 71652960 cciss/c0d1 driver: cciss
Fix this by adding code to change '/' to '!' in dev_set_name() to handle
this until dev_set_name() is converted to use kobject_set_name().

The previous fix to paged packets broke the merging because it
reset the skb->len before we added it to the merged packet. This
wasn't detected because it simply resulted in the truncation of
the packet while the missing bit is subsequently retransmitted.
The fix is to store skb->len before we clobber it.

Roel Kluin reported a bug in two error paths where skbs were wrongly
being freed using kfree(). He provided a fix where it was replaced to
kfree_skb(), as it should be.
However, in i2400mu_rx(), the error path was missing returning an
indication of the failure. Changed to reset rx_skb to NULL and return
it to the caller, i2400mu_rxd(). It will be treated as a transient
error and just ignore the packet.
Depending on the buffering conditions inside the device, the data
packet might be dropped or the device will signal the host again for
data-ready-to-read and the host will retry.

Contrary to what the docs say, the 'extended interrupt cause' bit in
the interrupt cause register (bit 1) appears to not be maskable on at
least some of the mv643xx_eth platforms, making writing zeroes to the
interrupt mask register but not the extended interrupt mask register
insufficient to stop interrupts from occuring. Therefore, also write
zeroes to the extended interrupt mask register when shutting down the
port.
This fixes the interrupt storm seen on the Pegasos board when shutting
down the interface.

Commit 66e63ffbc04706568d8789cbb00eaa8ddbcae648 ("mv643xx_eth:
implement ->set_rx_mode()") cleaned up mv643xx_eth's multicast filter
programming, but broke it as well.
The non-special multicast filter table (for multicast addresses that
are not of the form 01:00:5e:00:00:xx) consists of 256 hash table
buckets organised as 64 32-bit words, where the 'accept' bits are
in the LSB of each byte, so in bits 24 16 8 0 of each 32-bit word.
The old code got this right, but the referenced commit broke this by
using bits 3 2 1 0 instead. This commit fixes this up.

The trick in socket splicing where we try to convert the skb->data
into a page based reference using virt_to_page() does not work so
well.
The idea is to pass the virt_to_page() reference via the pipe
buffer, and refcount the buffer using a SKB reference.
But if we are splicing from a socket to a socket (via sendpage)
this doesn't work.
The from side processing will grab the page (and SKB) references.
The sendpage() calls will grab page references only, return, and
then the from side processing completes and drops the SKB ref.
The page based reference to skb->data is not enough to keep the
kmalloc() buffer backing it from being reused. Yet, that is
all that the socket send side has at this point.
This leads to data corruption if the skb->data buffer is reused
by SLAB before the send side socket actually gets the TX packet
out to the device.
The fix employed here is to simply allocate a page and copy the
skb->data bytes into that page.
This will hurt performance, but there is no clear way to fix this
properly without a copy at the present time, and it is important
to get rid of the data corruption.
With fixes from Herbert Xu.

This patch modifies how the tg3 driver handles device firmware.
The patch starts by consolidating David Woodhouse's earlier patch under
the same name. Specifically, the patch moves the request_firmware call
into a separate tg3_request_firmware() function and calls that function
from tg3_open() rather than tg3_init_one().
The patch then goes on to limit the number of devices that will make
request_firmware calls. The original firmware patch unnecessarily
requested TSO firmware for devices that did not need it. This patch
reduces the set of devices making TSO firmware patches to approximately
the following device set : 5703, 5704, and 5705.
Finally, the patch reduces the effects of a request_firmware() failure.
For those devices that are requesting TSO firmware, the driver will turn
off the TSO capability. If TSO firmware becomes available at a later
time, the device can be closed and then opened again to reacquire the
TSO capability.

In rare cases when an underrun occur, all macb buffers where consumed
and the netif_queue was stopped infinitely. This happens then the TGO
(transfer ongoing) bit in the TSR is set (and UND). It seems like
clening up after the underrun makes the driver and the macb hardware
end up in an inconsistent state. The result of this is that in the
following calls to macb_tx no TX buffers are released -> the
netif_queue was stopped, and never woken up again.
The solution is to disable the transmitter, if TGO is set, before
clening up after the underrun, and re-enable the transmitter when the
cleaning up is done.

Impact: fix crash with memory hotplug enabled
kernel_physical_mapping_init() is called during memory hotplug
so it does not belong in the init section.
If the kernel is built with CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y on
the make command line, arch/x86/mm/init_64.c is compiled with
the -fno-inline-functions-called-once gcc option defeating
inlining of kernel_physical_mapping_init() within init_memory_mapping().
When kernel_physical_mapping_init() is not inlined it is placed
in the .init.text section according to the __init in it's current
declaration. A later call to kernel_physical_mapping_init() during
a memory hotplug operation encounters an int3 trap because the
.init.text section memory has been freed.
This patch eliminates the crash caused by the int3 trap by moving the
non-inlined kernel_physical_mapping_init() from .init.text to .meminit.text.
