When an associated station changes its VHT operating mode this
can/will affect the bandwidth it's using, and consequently we
must recalculate the minimum bandwidth we need to use. Failure
to do so can lead to one of two scenarios:
1) we use a too high bandwidth, this is benign
2) we use a too narrow bandwidth, causing rate control and
actual PHY configuration to be out of sync, which can in
turn cause problems/crashes
Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

In the current minimum chandef code there's an issue in that the
recalculation can happen after rate control is initialized for a
station that has a wider bandwidth than the current chanctx, and
then rate control can immediately start using those higher rates
which could cause problems.
Observe that first of all that this problem is because we don't
take non-associated and non-uploaded stations into account. The
restriction to non-associated is quite pointless and is one of
the causes for the problem described above, since the rate init
will happen before the station is set to associated; no frames
could actually be sent until associated, but the rate table can
already contain higher rates and that might cause problems.
Also, rejecting non-uploaded stations is wrong, since the rate
control can select higher rates for those as well.
Secondly, it's then necessary to recalculate the minimal config
before initializing rate control, so that when rate control is
initialized, the higher rates are already available. This can be
done easily by adding the necessary function call in rate init.

Currently, this attribute is only fetched on station addition, but
not on station change. Since this info is only present in the assoc
request, with full station state support in the driver it cannot be
present when the station is added.
Thus, add support for changing the VHT opmode on station update if
done before (or while) the station is marked as associated. After
this, ignore it, since it used to be ignored.

fib_select_path does not call fib_select_multipath if oif is set in the
flow struct. For VRF use cases oif is always set, so multipath route
selection is bypassed. Use the FLOWI_FLAG_SKIP_NH_OIF to skip the oif
check similar to what is done in fib_table_lookup.
Add saddr and proto to the flow struct for the fib lookup done by the
VRF driver to better match hash computation for a flow.

We now 'select SOCK_CGROUP_DATA' but Kconfig complains that this is
not right when CONFIG_NET is disabled and there is no socket interface:
warning: (CGROUP_BPF) selects SOCK_CGROUP_DATA which has unmet direct dependencies (NET)
I don't know what the correct solution for this is, but simply removing
the dependency on NET from SOCK_CGROUP_DATA by moving it out of the
'if NET' section avoids the warning and does not produce other build

In the new DTS bindings for DSA (dsa2), the "ethernet" and "link"
phandles are respectively mandatory and exclusive to CPU port and DSA
link device tree nodes.
Simplify dsa2.c a bit by checking the presence of such phandle instead
of checking the redundant "label" property.
Then the Linux philosophy for Ethernet switch ports is to expose them to
userspace as standard NICs by default. Thus use the standard enumerated
"eth%d" device name if no "label" property is provided for a user port.
This allows to save DTS files from subjective net device names.
If one wants to rename an interface, udev rules can be used as usual.
Of course the current behavior is unchanged, and the optional "label"
property for user ports has precedence over the enumerated name.

There is not a valid reason to attempt setting the monitor channel
while in managed mode. Since this code path only deals with this mode,
remove the code block.
Johannes: I'll note that the comment indicated it was for backward
compatibility, but the code wasn't functional since switching the
monitor channel isn't supported (any more?) when in managed mode, as
that mode owns the channel configuration. Additionally, since monitor
can't be done on a managed mode interface, this would only have had
any effect to start with if a separate monitor interface is present,
in which case it's better to change the channel through that anyway,
if even possible.

page_frag_free
Patch series "Page fragment updates", v4.
This patch series takes care of a few cleanups for the page fragments
API.
First we do some renames so that things are much more consistent. First
we move the page_frag_ portion of the name to the front of the functions
names. Secondly we split out the cache specific functions from the
other page fragment functions by adding the word "cache" to the name.
Finally I added a bit of documentation that will hopefully help to
explain some of this. I plan to revisit this later as we get things
more ironed out in the near future with the changes planned for the DMA
setup to support eXpress Data Path.
This patch (of 3):
This patch renames the page frag functions to be more consistent with
other APIs. Specifically we place the name page_frag first in the name
and then have either an alloc or free call name that we append as the
suffix. This makes it a bit clearer in terms of naming.
In addition we drop the leading double underscores since we are
technically no longer a backing interface and instead the front end that
is called from the networking APIs.

The GRO fast path caches the frag0 address. This address becomes
invalid if frag0 is modified by pskb_may_pull or its variants.
So whenever that happens we must disable the frag0 optimization.
This is usually done through the combination of gro_header_hard
and gro_header_slow, however, the IPv6 extension header path did
the pulling directly and would continue to use the GRO fast path
incorrectly.
This patch fixes it by disabling the fast path when we enter the
IPv6 extension header path.

The GRO path has a fast-path where we avoid calling pskb_may_pull
and pskb_expand by directly accessing frag0. However, this should
only be done if we have enough tailroom in the skb as otherwise
we'll have to expand it later anyway.
This patch adds the check by capping frag0_len with the skb tailroom.

With commit e53743994e21
("af_iucv: use paged SKBs for big outbound messages"),
we transmit paged skbs for both of AF_IUCV's transport modes
(IUCV or HiperSockets).
The qeth driver for Layer 3 HiperSockets currently doesn't
support NETIF_F_SG, so these skbs would just be linearized again
by the stack.
Avoid that overhead by using paged skbs only for IUCV transport.
cc stable, since this also circumvents a significant skb leak when
sending large messages (where the skb then needs to be linearized).

Connection creation with SMC-R starts through an internal
TCP-connection. The Ethernet interface for this TCP-connection is not
restricted to the Ethernet interface of a RoCE device. Any existing
Ethernet interface belonging to the same physical net can be used, as
long as there is a defined relation between the Ethernet interface and
some RoCE devices. This relation is defined with the help of an
identification string called "Physical Net ID" or short "pnet ID".
Information about defined pnet IDs and their related Ethernet
interfaces and RoCE devices is stored in the SMC-R pnet table.
A pnet table entry consists of the identifying pnet ID and the
associated network and IB device.
This patch adds pnet table configuration support using the
generic netlink message interface referring to network and IB device
by their names. Commands exist to add, delete, and display pnet table
entries, and to flush or display the entire pnet table.
There are cross-checks to verify whether the ethernet interfaces
or infiniband devices really exist in the system. If either device
is not available, the pnet ID entry is not created.
Loss of network devices and IB devices is also monitored;
a pnet ID entry is removed when an associated network or
IB device is removed.
