p9_fd_poll() is never called with user pointers and f_op->poll()
doesn't expect its arguments to be from userland. There's no need to
set kernel ds before calling f_op->poll() from p9_fd_poll(). Remove
it.

p9_conn_destroy() first kills all current requests by calling
p9_conn_cancel(), then waits for the request list to be cleared by
waiting on p9_conn->equeue. After that, polling is stopped and the
trans is destroyed. This sequence has a few problems.
* Read and write works were never cancelled and the p9_conn can be
destroyed while the works are running as r/w works remove requests
from the list and dereference the p9_conn from them.
* The list emptiness wait using p9_conn->equeue wouldn't trigger
because p9_conn_cancel() always clears all the lists and the only
way the wait can be triggered is to have another task to issue a
request between the slim window between p9_conn_cancel() and the
wait, which isn't safe under the current implementation with or
without the wait.
This patch fixes the problem by first stopping poll, which can
schedule r/w works, first and cancle r/w works which guarantees that
r/w works are not and will not run from that point and then calling
p9_conn_cancel() and do the rest of destruction.

9p trans modules aren't refcounted nor were they unregistered
properly. Fix it.
* Add 9p_trans_module->owner and reference the module on each trans
instance creation and put it on destruction.
* Protect v9fs_trans_list with a spinlock. This isn't strictly
necessary as the list is manipulated only during module loading /
unloading but it's a good idea to make the API safe.
* Unregister trans modules when the corresponding module is being
unloaded.
* While at it, kill unnecessary EXPORT_SYMBOL on p9_trans_fd_init().

This patch fixes the led behavior in IBSS. After we joined an IBSS cell we
need to inform the led that we got associated. Although there is no 802.11
association in IBSS mode, the semantic of "There is a link" is relevant.
This allows the led to blink in IBSS mode (at least this solves a bug for
iwlwifi).

Long awaited, hard work. This patch totally cleans up the rate control
API to remove the requirement to include internal headers outside of
net/mac80211/.
There's one internal use in the PID algorithm left for mesh networking,
we'll have to figure out a way to clean that one up and decide how to
do the peer link evaluation, possibly independent of the rate control
algorithm or via new API.
Additionally, ath9k is left using the cross-inclusion hack for now, we
will add new API where necessary to make this work properly, but right
now I'm not expert enough to do it. It's still off better than before.

When I split off the action frame handling I made the code drop

There's no need to register the master netdev with cfg80211,
in fact, this is quite dangerous and lead to having to add
checks for the master interface all over the config handlers.
This patch removes the "ieee80211_ptr" from the master iface
in favour of having a small netdev_priv() associated with
the master interface that stores the ieee80211_local pointer.
Because of this, a lot of code in the configuration handlers
can go away. To make this patch easier to verify I have also
removed a number of wiphy_priv() calls in favour of getting
the sdata first and then the local pointer from that.

The reasons for disabling paccept() are as follows:
* The API is more complex than needed. There is AFAICS no demonstrated
use case that the sigset argument of this syscall serves that couldn't
equally be served by the use of pselect/ppoll/epoll_pwait + traditional
accept(). Roland seems to concur with this opinion
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/723953/focus=732255). I
have (more than once) asked Ulrich to explain otherwise
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/723952/focus=731018), but he
does not respond, so one is left to assume that he doesn't know of such
a case.
* The use of a sigset argument is not consistent with other I/O APIs
that can block on a single file descriptor (e.g., read(), recv(),
connect()).
* The behavior of paccept() when interrupted by a signal is IMO strange:
the kernel restarts the system call if SA_RESTART was set for the
handler. I think that it should not do this -- that it should behave
consistently with paccept()/ppoll()/epoll_pwait(), which never restart,
regardless of SA_RESTART. The reasoning here is that the very purpose
of paccept() is to wait for a connection or a signal, and that
restarting in the latter case is probably never useful. (Note: Roland
disagrees on this point, believing that rather paccept() should be
consistent with accept() in its behavior wrt EINTR
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/723953/focus=732255).)
I believe that instead, a simpler API, consistent with Ulrich's other
recent additions, is preferable:
accept4(int fd, struct sockaddr *sa, socklen_t *salen, ind flags);
(This simpler API was originally proposed by Ulrich:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/92072)
If this simpler API is added, then if we later decide that the sigset
argument really is required, then a suitable bit in 'flags' could be added
to indicate the presence of the sigset argument.
At this point, I am hoping we either will get a counter-argument from
Ulrich about why we really do need paccept()'s sigset argument, or that he
will resubmit the original accept4() patch.

This patch add support for keeping an additional character alias
associated with an network interface. This is useful for maintaining
the SNMP ifAlias value which is a user defined value. Routers use this
to hold information like which circuit or line it is connected to. It
is just an arbitrary text label on the network device.
There are two exposed interfaces with this patch, the value can be
read/written either via netlink or sysfs.
This could be maintained just by the snmp daemon, but it is more
generally useful for other management tools, and the kernel is good
place to act as an agreed upon interface to store it.

As discovered by Timo Teräs, the currently xfrm_state_walk scheme
is racy because if a second dump finishes before the first, we
may free xfrm states that the first dump would walk over later.
This patch fixes this by storing the dumps in a list in order
to calculate the correct completion counter which cures this
problem.
I've expanded netlink_cb in order to accomodate the extra state
related to this. It shouldn't be a big deal since netlink_cb
is kmalloced for each dump and we're just increasing it by 4 or
8 bytes.

The nr_conns variable in the sync message header is only eight bits wide
and will overflow on interfaces with a large MTU. As a result the backup
won't parse all connections contained in the sync buffer. On regular
ethernet with an MTU of 1500 this isn't a problem, because we can't
overflow the value, but consider jumbo frames being used on a cross-over
connection between both directors.
We now restrict the size of the sync buffer, so that we never put more
than 255 connections into a single sync buffer.

I'm trying to use the TCP_MAXSEG option to setsockopt() to set the MSS
for both sides of a bidirectional connection.
man tcp says: "If this option is set before connection establishment, it
also changes the MSS value announced to the other end in the initial
packet."
However, the kernel only uses the MTU/route cache to set the advertised
MSS. That means if I set the MSS to, say, 500 before calling connect(),
I will send at most 500-byte packets, but I will still receive 1500-byte
packets in reply.
This is a bug, either in the kernel or the documentation.
This patch (applies to latest net-2.6) reduces the advertised value to
that requested by the user as long as setsockopt() is called before
connect() or accept(). This seems like the behavior that one would
expect as well as that which is documented.
I've tried to make sure that things that depend on the advertised MSS
are set correctly.
