We already ensure 64 bytes alignment and add padding if required
during skb_aggr allocation.
Alignment and padding in mwifiex_11n_form_amsdu_txpd() is redundant.
We may end up accessing more data than allocated size with this.
This patch fixes following issue by removing redundant padding.

Function lbs_cmd_802_11_sleep_params() always return 0, even if the call
to lbs_cmd_with_response() fails. In this case, the parameter @sp will
keep uninitialized. Because the return value is 0, its caller (say
lbs_sleepparams_read()) will not detect the error, and will copy the
uninitialized stack memory to user sapce, resulting in stack information
leak. To avoid the bug, this patch returns variable ret (which takes
the return value of lbs_cmd_with_response()) instead of 0.

The network stack no longer uses the last_rx member of struct net_device
since the bonding driver switched to use its own private last_rx in
commit 9f242738376d ("bonding: use last_arp_rx in slave_last_rx()").
However, some drivers still (ab)use the field for their own purposes and
some driver just update it without actually using it.
Previously, there was an accompanying comment for the last_rx member
added in commit 4dc89133f49b ("net: add a comment on netdev->last_rx")
which asked drivers not to update is, unless really needed. However,
this commend was removed in commit f8ff080dacec ("bonding: remove
useless updating of slave->dev->last_rx"), so some drivers added later
on still did update last_rx.
Remove all usage of last_rx and switch three drivers (sky2, atp and
smc91c92_cs) which actually read and write it to use their own private
copy in netdev_priv.
Compile-tested with allyesconfig and allmodconfig on x86 and arm.

Commit a1cba5613edf ("net: phy: Add Broadcom phy library for common
interfaces") make the BCM63xx PHY driver utilize bcm_phy_config_intr()
which would appear to do the right thing, except that it does not write
to the MII_BCM63XX_IR register but to MII_BCM54XX_ECR which is
different.
This would be causing invalid link parameters and events from being
generated by the PHY interrupt.

We can only process 1 packet at one time during sendmsg(). This often
lead bad cache utilization under heavy load. So this patch tries to do
some batching during rx before submitting them to host network
stack. This is done through accepting MSG_MORE as a hint from
sendmsg() caller, if it was set, batch the packet temporarily in a
linked list and submit them all once MSG_MORE were cleared.
Tests were done by pktgen (burst=128) in guest over mlx4(noqueue) on host:
Mpps -+%
rx-frames = 0 0.91 +0%
rx-frames = 4 1.00 +9.8%
rx-frames = 8 1.00 +9.8%
rx-frames = 16 1.01 +10.9%
rx-frames = 32 1.07 +17.5%
rx-frames = 48 1.07 +17.5%
rx-frames = 64 1.08 +18.6%
rx-frames = 64 (no MSG_MORE) 0.91 +0%
User were allowed to change per device batched packets through
ethtool -C rx-frames. NAPI_POLL_WEIGHT were used as upper limitation
to prevent bh from being disabled too long.

Relax ordering(RO) is one feature of 82599 NIC, to enable this feature can
enhance the performance for some cpu architecure, such as SPARC and so on.
Currently it only supports one special cpu architecture(SPARC) in 82599
driver to enable RO feature, this is not very common for other cpu architecture
which really needs RO feature.
This patch add one common config CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_RELAX_ORDER to set RO feature,
and should define CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_RELAX_ORDER in sparc Kconfig firstly.

an existing 4 byte hole in the struct.
2. The adjusted data length is checked against
MLX5E_XDP_MIN_INLINE and MLX5E_SW2HW_MTU(rq->netdev->mtu).
3. The macro MLX5E_SW2HW_MTU is moved from en_main.c to en.h.
MLX5E_HW2SW_MTU is also moved to en.h for symmetric reason
but it is not a must.
v2:
- Keep the xdp specific logic in mlx5e_xdp_handle()
- Update dma_len after the sanity checks in mlx5e_xmit_xdp_frame()

The priv->device pointer for c_can_pci is never set, but it is used
without a NULL check in c_can_start(). Setting it in c_can_pci_probe()
like c_can_plat_probe() prevents c_can_pci.ko from crashing, with and
without CONFIG_PM.
This might also cause the pm_runtime_*() functions in c_can.c to
actually be executed for c_can_pci devices - they are the only other
place where priv->device is used, but they all contain a null check.

The function stmmac_dt_phy provides several possibilities for initializing
plat->mdio_node, all of which have the effect of increasing the reference
count of the assigned value. This field is not updated elsewhere, so the
value is live until the end of the lifetime of plat (devm_allocated), just
after the end of stmmac_remove_config_dt. Thus, add an of_node_put on
plat->mdio_node in stmmac_remove_config_dt. It is possible that the field
mdio_node is never initialized, but of_node_put is NULL-safe, so it is also
safe to call of_node_put in that case.

Similar to commit fcd2042e8d36 ("mwifiex: printk() overflow with 32-byte
SSIDs"), we failed to account for the existence of 32-char SSIDs in our
debugfs code. Unlike in that case though, we zeroed out the containing
struct first, and I'm pretty sure we're guaranteed to have some padding
after the 'ssid.ssid' and 'ssid.ssid_len' fields (the struct is 33 bytes
long).
So, this is the difference between:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/mwifiex/mlan0/info
...
essid="0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef "
...
and the correct output:

During bands setup we disable all channels that firmware doesn't support
in the current regulatory setup. If we do this before wiphy_register
it will result in copying set flags (including IEEE80211_CHAN_DISABLED)
to the orig_flags which is supposed to be persistent. We don't want this
as regulatory change may result in enabling some channels. We shouldn't
mess with orig_flags then (by changing them or ignoring them) so it's
better to just take care of their proper values.
This patch cleanups code a bit (by taking orig_flags more seriously) and
allows further improvements like disabling really unavailable channels.
We will need that e.g. if some frequencies should be disabled for good
due to hardware setup (design).

On rt2800usb, if we do not get TX status from HW, we assume frames were
posted and after entry->last_action timeout, we forcibly provide TX
status to mac80211. So it's not possible to detect hardware TX hung
based on the timeout. Additionally TXRQ_PCNT tells on number of frames
in the Packet Buffer (buffer between bus interface and chip MAC
subsystem), which can be non zero on normal conditions. To check HW hung
we will need provide some different mechanism, for now remove watchdog
as current implementation is wrong and not useful.

Our code was assigning number of channels to the index variable by
default. If firmware reported channel we didn't predict this would
result in using that initial index value and writing out of array. This
never happened so far (we got a complete list of supported channels) but
it means possible memory corruption so we should handle it anyway.
This patch simply detects unexpected channel and ignores it.
As we don't try to create new entry now, it's also safe to drop hw_value
and center_freq assignment. For known channels we have these set anyway.
I decided to fix this issue by assigning NULL or a target channel to the
channel variable. This was one of possible ways, I prefefred this one as
it also avoids using channel[index] over and over.

Tests showed that when whole bandwidth is consumed, the latency for
various kind of traffic can reach high values. With saturated
link (e.g. with iperf from target to host) simple ping could take
significant amount of time. BQL proved to improve this situation
when implemented in mvneta driver. Measurements of ping latency
for 3 link speeds:
Speed | Latency w/o BQL | Latency with BQL
10 | 7-14 ms | 3.5 ms
100 | 2-12 ms | 0.6 ms
1000 | often timeout | up to 2ms
Decreasing latency as above result in sligt performance cost - 4kpps
(-1.4%) when pushing 64B packets via two bridged interfaces of Armada 38x.
For 1500B packets in the same setup, the mpstat tool showed +8% of
CPU occupation (default affinity, second CPU idle). Even though this
cost seems reasonable to take, considering other improvements.

Basing on xmit_more flag of the skb, TX descriptors can be concatenated
before flushing. This commit delay Tx descriptor flush if the queue is
running and if there is more skb's to send.
A maximum allowed number of descriptors for flushing at once due to
MVNETA_TXQ_UPDATE_REG(q) reqisters limitation, is 255. Because of that
a new macro was added (MVNETA_TXQ_DEC_SENT_MASK) in order to ensure that
concatenated amount of descriptor does not exceed that value.

When running SRIOV, warnings for SRQ LIMIT events flood the Hypervisor's
message log when (correct, normally operating) apps use SRQ LIMIT events
as a trigger to post WQEs to SRQs.
Add more information to the existing debug printout for SRQ_LIMIT, and
output the warning messages only for the SRQ CATAS ERROR event.
Fixes: acba2420f9d2 ("mlx4_core: Add wrapper functions and comm channel and slave event support to EQs")
Fixes: e0debf9cb50d ("mlx4_core: Reduce warning message for SRQ_LIMIT event to debug level")
