This patch renames the function mgmt_inquiry_failed() to
mgmt_start_discovery_failed(). This function is more related
to MGMT_OP_START_DISCOVERY command handling than to inquiry.
Besides, this functions will be reused by LE based discovery
procedures in case of failure.

When mapping a foreign page with xenbus_map_ring_valloc() with the
GNTTABOP_map_grant_ref hypercall, set the GNTMAP_contains_pte flag and
pass a pointer to the PTE (in init_mm).
After the page is mapped, the usual fault mechanism can be used to
update additional MMs. This allows the vmalloc_sync_all() to be
removed from alloc_vm_area().

This is just a cleanup patch to silence a static checker warning.
The problem is that we cap "nr_iovecs" so it can't be larger than
"UIO_MAXIOV" but we don't check for negative values. It turns out this is
prevented at other layers, but logically it doesn't make sense to have
negative nr_iovecs so making it unsigned is nicer.

Almost every platform_driver does the three steps get_resource,
request_mem_region, ioremap. This does not only lead to a lot of code
duplication, but also a huge number of similar error strings and
inconsistent error codes on failure. So, introduce a helper function
which simplifies remapping a resource and make it hard to do something
wrong and add documentation for it.

This patch adds phy reset functionality to mdio-gpio driver. Now
mdio_gpio_platform_data has new member as function pointer which can be
filled at the bsp level for a callback from phy infrastructure. Also the
mdio-bitbang driver fills-in the reset function of mii_bus structure.
Without this patch the bsp level code has to takecare of the reseting
PHY's on the bus, which become bit hacky for every bsp and
phy-infrastructure is ignored aswell.

The crisv10.c and the atmel_serial.c serial drivers intepret the fields of the
serial_rs485 structure in a different way.
In particular, crisv10.c uses SER_RS485_RTS_AFTER_SEND and
SER_RS485_RTS_ON_SEND for the voltage of the RTS pin; atmel_serial.c,
instead, uses these values to know if a delay must be set before and
after sending. This patch makes the usage of these variables consistent
across all drivers and fixes the Documentation as well.
From now on, SER_RS485_RTS_AFTER_SEND and SER_RS485_RTS_ON_SEND will be
used to set the voltage of the RTS pin (as in the crisv10.c driver); the
delay will be understood by looking only at the value of
delay_rts_before_send and delay_rts_after_send.

One of the thing we discussed during netdev 2011 conference was the idea
to change some network drivers to allocate/populate their skb at RX
completion time, right before feeding the skb to network stack.
In old days, we allocated skbs when populating the RX ring.
This means bringing into cpu cache sk_buff and skb_shared_info cache
lines (since we clear/initialize them), then 'queue' skb->data to NIC.
By the time NIC fills a frame in skb->data buffer and host can process
it, cpu probably threw away the cache lines from its caches, because lot
of things happened between the allocation and final use.
So the deal would be to allocate only the data buffer for the NIC to
populate its RX ring buffer. And use build_skb() at RX completion to
attach a data buffer (now filled with an ethernet frame) to a new skb,
initialize the skb_shared_info portion, and give the hot skb to network
stack.
build_skb() is the function to allocate an skb, caller providing the
data buffer that should be attached to it. Drivers are expected to call
skb_reserve() right after build_skb() to adjust skb->data to the
Ethernet frame (usually skipping NET_SKB_PAD and NET_IP_ALIGN, but some
drivers might add a hardware provided alignment)
Data provided to build_skb() MUST have been allocated by a prior
kmalloc() call, with enough room to add SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct
skb_shared_info)) bytes at the end of the data without corrupting
incoming frame.
data = kmalloc(NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN + 1536 +
SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)),
GFP_ATOMIC);
...
skb = build_skb(data);
if (!skb) {
recycle_data(data);
} else {
skb_reserve(skb, NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN);
...
}

In UP systems, the idle task is initialized using the init_task
structure from which the command name is taken (currently "swapper").
In SMP systems, one idle task per CPU is forked by the worker thread
from which the task structure is copied. The command name is, therefore,
"kworker/0:0" or "kworker/0:1", if not updated. Since such update was
lacking, all idle tasks in SMP systems were incorrectly named. This
longtime bug was not discovered immediately, because there is no /proc/0
entry - the bug only becomes apparent when tracing is enabled.
This patch sets the command name of the idle tasks in SMP systems to the
name that is used in the INIT_TASK structure suffixed by a slash and the
number of the CPU.

[PATCH V5 net-next] neigh: new unresolved queue limits
unres_qlen is the number of frames we are able to queue per unresolved
neighbour. Its default value (3) was never changed and is responsible
for strange drops, especially if IP fragments are used, or multiple
sessions start in parallel. Even a single tcp flow can hit this limit.

Reading /proc/net/snmp6 on a machine with a lot of cpus is very
expensive (can be ~88000 us).
This is because ICMPV6MSG MIB uses 4096 bytes per cpu, and folding
values for all possible cpus can read 16 Mbytes of memory (32MBytes on
non x86 arches)
ICMP messages are not considered as fast path on a typical server, and
eventually few cpus handle them anyway. We can afford an atomic
operation instead of using percpu data.
This saves 4096 bytes per cpu and per network namespace.

This patch introduces new network device called team. It supposes to be
very fast, simple, userspace-driven alternative to existing bonding
driver.
Userspace library called libteam with couple of demo apps is available
here:
https://github.com/jpirko/libteam
Note it's still in its dipers atm.
team<->libteam use generic netlink for communication. That and rtnl
suppose to be the only way to configure team device, no sysfs etc.
Python binding of libteam was recently introduced.
Daemon providing arpmon/miimon active-backup functionality will be
introduced shortly. All what's necessary is already implemented in
kernel team driver.
v7->v8:
- check ndo_ndo_vlan_rx_[add/kill]_vid functions before calling
them.
- use dev_kfree_skb_any() instead of dev_kfree_skb()
v6->v7:
- transmit and receive functions are not checked in hot paths.
That also resolves memory leak on transmit when no port is
present
v5->v6:
- changed couple of _rcu calls to non _rcu ones in non-readers
v4->v5:
- team_change_mtu() uses team->lock while travesing though port
list
- mac address changes are moved completely to jurisdiction of
userspace daemon. This way the daemon can do FOM1, FOM2 and
possibly other weird things with mac addresses.
Only round-robin mode sets up all ports to bond's address then
enslaved.
- Extended Kconfig text
v3->v4:
- remove redundant synchronize_rcu from __team_change_mode()
- revert "set and clear of mode_ops happens per pointer, not per
byte"
- extend comment of function __team_change_mode()
v2->v3:
- team_change_mtu() uses rcu version of list traversal to unwind
- set and clear of mode_ops happens per pointer, not per byte
- port hashlist changed to be embedded into team structure
- error branch in team_port_enter() does cleanup now
- fixed rtln->rtnl
v1->v2:
- modes are made as modules. Makes team more modular and
extendable.
- several commenters' nitpicks found on v1 were fixed
- several other bugs were fixed.
- note I ignored Eric's comment about roundrobin port selector
as Eric's way may be easily implemented as another mode (mode
"random") in future.

For some frequencies, the clocks_calc_mult_shift() function will
unfortunately select mult values very close to 0xffffffff. This
has the potential to overflow when NTP adjusts the clock, adding
to the mult value.
This patch adds a clocksource.maxadj value, which provides
an approximation of an 11% adjustment(NTP limits adjustments to
500ppm and the tick adjustment is limited to 10%), which could
be made to the clocksource.mult value. This is then used to both
check that the current mult value won't overflow/underflow, as
well as warning us if the timekeeping_adjust() code pushes over
that 11% boundary.
v2: Fix max_adjustment calculation, and improve WARN_ONCE
messages.
v3: Don't warn before maxadj has actually been set

This reverts commit a72c5e5eb738033938ab30d6a634b74d1d060f10.
The commit introduced alias for block devices which is intended to be
used during logging although actual usage hasn't been committed yet.
This approach adds very limited benefit (raw log might be easier to
follow) which can be trivially implemented in userland but has a lot
of problems.
It is much worse than netif renames because it doesn't rename the
actual device but just adds conveninence name which isn't used
universally or enforced. Everything internal including device lookup
and sysfs still uses the internal name and nothing prevents two
devices from using conflicting alias - ie. sda can have sdb as its
alias.
This has been nacked by people working on device driver core, block
layer and kernel-userland interface and shouldn't have been
upstreamed. Revert it.

OK I found it, I did some extra tests and believe its ready.
[PATCH net-next] ipv4: IP_PKTINFO doesnt need dst reference
When a socket uses IP_PKTINFO notifications, we currently force a dst
reference for each received skb. Reader has to access dst to get needed
information (rt_iif & rt_spec_dst) and must release dst reference.
We also forced a dst reference if skb was put in socket backlog, even
without IP_PKTINFO handling. This happens under stress/load.
We can instead store the needed information in skb->cb[], so that only
softirq handler really access dst, improving cache hit ratios.
This removes two atomic operations per packet, and false sharing as
well.
On a benchmark using a mono threaded receiver (doing only recvmsg()
calls), I can reach 720.000 pps instead of 570.000 pps.
IP_PKTINFO is typically used by DNS servers, and any multihomed aware
UDP application.
